The olfactory architecture design is an innovative approach that integrates the sense of smell into the architectural experience. This concept goes beyond traditional visual and tactile elements, creating spaces that engage occupants through carefully curated smells. Factors to be considered in the science of smell and space through olfactory perception and behavior, applications in architecture, designing with smell including anchoring in mind and challenges in application. This study wants to revealing and exploring the essentials of how olfactory design is transforming the built environment based on sensory experience. Several tools and techniques are used for a captivating theories and approach in designing architecture by shaping smell sensory experiences and evoking specific feelings. From the results of this study, the olfactory architecture design offers a new dimension to the way we experience spaces, enhancing our emotional and psychological connection to our environment. As the field grows, architects and designers will continue to explore innovative ways to integrate smell, creating spaces that are not only visually and functionally appealing but also emotionally resonant.
