Dysosmia can be classified as either parosmia (also called troposmia) or phantosmia. Parosmia is a distortion in the perception of an odorant. Odorants smell different from what one remembers. Phantosmia is the perception of an odor when no odorant is present. The cause of dysosmia still remains a theory.
These techniques can help deduce whether a specific case of parosmia can be attributed to just one stimulating odor or if there is a group of odors that will elicit the displaced smell. In one case studied by Frasnelli et al. certain smells, specifically coffees, cigarettes, onions, and perfumes, induced a "nauseating" odor for the patient ...

"My nose can smell color now," wrote another cheeky five-star reviewer. Many reviewers say the product takes them back to childhood, as it was staple in their medicine cabinet growing up:
Smell as evidence of disease has been long used, dating back to Hippocrates around 400 years BCE. [1] It is still employed with a focus on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in body odor. [ 2 ] VOCs are carbon-based molecular groups having a low molecular weight, secreted during cells' metabolic processes. [ 3 ]
The reasoning so far is simple: Just as a GLP-1 can make eating food less enjoyable because it modulates your brain’s pleasure and reward center, doctors say that it could impact how you feel ...
The anterior olfactory nucleus is the memory hub for smell. [24] When different odor objects or components are mixed, humans and other mammals sniffing the mixture (presented by, e.g., a sniff bottle) are often unable to identify the components in the mixture even though they can recognize each individual component presented alone.
