Once a bottle of essential oil is opened, the aromaticcompounds travel through the air, where your nose breathesthem in. From here, the compounds interact with chemicalsensors called olfactory receptors. These receptors live inthe olfactory system—the part of the brain that regulatesthe sense of smell. From the olfactory system, the scentthen travels to the limbic system. Once in the limbic system,the scent triggers responses based on your personalmemories and experiences.This is why a specific aroma might remind you of yourchildhood home or a vacation you once took. When thearoma travels to the limbic system, it creates a responsebased on your memories and past experiences associatedwith that particular scent. This also explains why a singlearoma may be inviting or comforting to you, while itmight seem unpleasant to someone else. The way youexperience an aroma depends heavily on your memoriesand experiences.Knowing all this, you can see why aromatic use is one of thequickest and most convenient ways to enjoy essential oils.Their volatile chemical nature creates a near-instantaneousresponse after you breathe in their aromas.When the aroma travels tothe limbic system, it creates aresponse based on your memoriesand past experiences associatedwith that particular scent.4
