When it comes to choosing a gift for those closest to us, there’s a reason fragrance is still a classic choice. Our sense of smell is one of the most powerful senses we possess, and the merest hint of something familiar can trigger a special memory or wonderful moment in our lives that we treasure forever. The reason for this is simple. It’s because there is a direct scientifically proven link in our brains between memory and smell.
