Someone messages saying they’re cooking something, and your phone releases a light aroma. Shopping apps could let you smell perfumes before buying, food apps could show the smell of today’s special, and movies or games could release scents to make scenes feel real. The device would use a set of base scent molecules, mixing them like primary colours to generate thousands of smells. A gentle puff releases the scent instantly, clean and safe. This could change everything from entertainment to online shopping to everyday messaging — a whole new Internet of Smells.
