Olfactory marketing: discover the scented gadgets to communicate in winning way your brand
Have you ever heard of olfactory marketing?
For many years corporations used sensorial marketing to stimulate the five senses because they influenced the emotional dimension.
Among these, a prominent place belongs to olfactory marketing thanks to its characteristics allowing it to have an important role in marketing and communication activities. But let’s see in detail the potential of olfactory marketing:
1.STORAGE KNOWLEDGE
One study of New York Rockefeller University demonstrated that people remember 35% of what they smell with respect to 5% of what they see, 2% of what they hear, and 1% of what they touch.
The olfactory memory is not responsive: the scent doesn’t require attention to be remembered but it cannot be ignored, and for this reason, the percentage of olfactory memories is high.
2.RESISTANCE DURING IN TIME
If the visual memory loses more than 50% of its intensity in just 3 months, the olfactory one loses just 20% in a year.
3. EVOCATIVE POWER AND ABILITY TO INFLUENCE EMOTIONS AND MOOD STATES
Another element that characterizes the sense of smell is the strong impact that this can have on emotions: it is linked with the limbic system (a part of the brain where the emotions reside) that allows us to link the scent with particular sensations and memories.
In the world, there are more than 400.000 different smells that if used in the right way, can influence people’s behaviors and nudge them to purchase.
Anja Stör by Paderborn University says that “the people interviewed after one was scented with lemon fragrance, were 14.8% more inclined to buy than those interviewed in an unscented room”.
In Japan, for more years people used scents to improve work activity so they used different aromas on different parts of the days. Some examples: lemon aroma for a stimulant effect, flowers aroma to stimulate resistance, wood smell to improve optimism.
