INTERACTIVE SMELL MAP
Move through smell as a public world.
The map shows all 200 smells in SmellBook as dots, grouped by their main category. Lines join smells that our editors have linked. A dot's place helps you find your way; being close does not mean two smells are alike.
CATEGORIES ON THE MAP10
Each smell sits on the map once, in its main category. A smell can also belong to other categories, so a category can hold more smells than it shows here. The Universe and the Directory use the same categories. How smells are grouped.

The map is an arrangement for browsing. Dots are placed by category and lines show links recorded by editors, without weights. Where a dot sits, and how far apart two dots are, is not a score of similarity, popularity or recommendation.
