Why is it that someone may like one scent and not
another?
Because
even though we can distinguish many scents, our sense of
smell is very closely tied to our subconscious and the
decision making process of our mind. Scents can bring up
a whole host of emotions and memories that can be
pleasant
(the fragrance your wife had on when you got married),
or unpleasant (that terrible aftershave the police
officer was wearing when you got your first ticket).
Scents have a way of sticking in your memory. You may
not know why you do or don’t like a certain smell but
your brain knows.
