Fragrances and flavors encompass sensory elements that enrich our olfactory and gustatory experiences. Fragrances encompass the delightful or attractive scents encountered in perfumes, cosmetics, and a range of other products. They consist of aromatic compounds that may originate naturally or be synthesized artificially. Conversely, flavors represent the distinctive tastes we detect in food and beverages, arising from the interplay between taste buds and olfactory receptors. Flavors can manifest as sweet, sour, salty, bitter, or umami. Both fragrances and flavors hold pivotal roles in enhancing and shaping consumers' sensory interactions with diverse products, contributing intricacy and richness to their overall sensory perceptions.
