Our five (six for those few lucky individuals) senses are absolutely amazing, as the Kawamura Ganjavian 'Scenter' can attest to.

Scent is one of the more powerful memory inducers and the Kawamura Ganjavian 'Scenter' system capitalizes on that. I just wonder, as does Jesus Diaz of Gizmodo, how they get the scents in it. I need more details.
