"Olemos y nos huelen" is a specialized book that explores the significance of the sense of smell in modern society. It highlights the primary function of smell, which allows for the identification of people and places, and delves into the profound symbolic and emotional connotations associated with olfactory experiences. The book examines how scents can evoke memories and provide sensory pleasure, while also addressing societal trends that lead to an overemphasis on deodorization and perfuming. In this context, the role of literature as a reflection of social developments is emphasized, with language creating a new vocabulary that describes the diversity of scents. The author, Encarnación García de León, offers a well-founded analysis that is relevant for both professionals and those interested in language and literature.
