Europäische Geruchs-Datenbank

Odeuropa ist eine Online-Datenbank mit Düften aus dem Europa des 16. bis frühen 20. Jahrhunderts, die aus der historischen Literatur und Kunst stammen (via Researchbuzz: Firehose und smithsonianmag.com):

“At its core, Odeuropa is an encyclopedia of smells. The online database pulls together the vast scent-related image and textual data of museums, universities and other heritage institutions, “to help people discover the olfactory cultures and vocabularies of the past,” says Leemans. This includes everything from disease-fighting perfumes to the stench of industrialization in historic literature and paintings.”
