Memories triggered by scent have a stronger emotional connection, - TopicsExpress



          

Memories triggered by scent have a stronger emotional connection, therefore appear more intense than other memory triggers. This is because input from your sense of smell goes directly to the cerebral cortex (grey matter) without being filtered through your hypothalami. Your hypothalami filter information from all your other senses and discard about 99% of that information, sending only about 1% on to the cerebral cortex.
