Importantly, the olfactory cortex is embedded within the brain’s limbic system and amygdala, where emotions are born and emotional memories stored. That’s why smells, feelings and memories become so easily and intimately entangled... Numerous studies have shown that smell memory is long and resilient, and that the earliest odor associations we make often stick.
