I wish there was a technology that could capture the smell you are experiencing, just the way you can the colours with a camera. Some smells give such bliss and are so unique (at least to my nose) that I wish I could capture and share the joy with my dear ones.

Sort of the opposite of what you are talking about, but in that (failed) search, I came across this, which feels relevant: www.npr.org/2020/11/2โ€ฆ
