We know there is a business of making aromas, right? $$$
Yes the stuff you can buy at the store is one.
Another are the industrial strength aromas that some businesses have specifically made for their product.
Have you ever walked into a restaurant or store and and were suspiciously blasted at the door with a fan blowing ....the smell of.... what you HOPE to find inside.
Fresh made Bar-B-Q perhaps,
Cinnamon buns baking maybe,
or Warm Apple pie is another possibility.
etc.
And don't forget the "New Car smell" most likely sprayed around new AND used cars of a certain age or quality.
It's so slightly annoying..... 'cuz you know it's fake.
The most recent one for me was walking into a Lucky's grocery and being blasted at the door with the smell of something baking. Never mind that they probably import most all the baked goods and the bakery dept is all the way at the back of the store so ... how did that smell happen to be, RIGHT THERE, at the front of the store?
Another annoying one is going to a place like Applebees., once my parents favorite place to go, so I doubt I'll ever be going there again before their final bankruptcy. The front door is literally at the tippy toppy corner of the building and the kitchen is all the way at the back of the building. It wouldn't make any sense to vent all the ACTUAL kitchen grease and odors to the front of the building when they could just go straight up and out the roof. So it's so fake
Yet is smells of .... ribs and potatoes seasoned just right.
As fake as the menu pictures are compared to what's ACTUALLY delivered to the table.
