This makes a notable contribution towards the growing body of literature on the senses and design by providing some answers to scent questions and contributing towards the wider research agenda regarding how people sensually experience urban environments. It is the first of its kind in examining the role of smell specifically in contemporary experiences and perceptions of English towns and cities, highlighting the perception of urban smellscapes as inter-related with place perception, and describing odour’s contribution towards overall sense of place. With case studies from factories, breweries, urban parks, and experimental smell environments in Manchester and Grasse, This identifies processes by which urban smell environments are managed and controlled, and gives designers and city managers tools to actively use smell in their work.
