If you were blindfolded (maybe with one of those catlike velvet masks), would you be able to tell what sort of car you were travelling in? Probably not. We may admire the look of our cars, but we hardly ever engage the rest of our senses. Yet they all have their own distinctive smell (in my case, petrol with base notes of mildew and lost sweets). They sound different, feel different and, who knows, probably taste different.
