Yes. I agree.
We have not done serious experiments with scents (smell) regarding ‘sound’ but we have done experiments with taste (as have others)!! One wonders if one smells gas whilst listening to music whether the sound would be worse or if one smells smoke whether the sound would be worse. The times when we have smelt gas, we haven’t been listening to music and when we have smelt smoke, we haven’t been listening to music. Logic says that IF one was listening to music and one smelt gas, one would immediately get up to investigate the source of the gas – NOT continue listening to music. Ditto with the smell of smoke !!
Certainly Nature uses smells (scents) as signals (both for danger and reassurance).
