Sensory Science
Sensory Science is the study of how our senses—like sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing—help us experience the world around us. It explores how we perceive different stimuli and how these perceptions influence our preferences and behaviors. For example, when we eat food, our senses work together to create flavors and aromas that can make us enjoy or dislike a dish.
This field is important in various industries, such as food and beverage, cosmetics, and fragrance. By understanding sensory responses, companies can develop products that appeal to consumers, ensuring that they are not only functional but also enjoyable to use.
