Ciao Shehrina,
there is a lot of material on the site, particularly on the Italian version. The 2 books in my bibliography are : Fragranze. Psicologia e biologia del profumo, Dodd e Van Toller, Ed. Aporie
and:
Aromatherapy scent and psiche Peter & Kate Damian, Healing arts press
You can olso read ù
“The Fragrant Mind”, Valery Ann Worwood
and “subtle aromatherapy” by Patricia Davis.
Olfactory psychology is only in a small part question of smell, it cannot be aprehended without the knowledge of the natural essences. The wider this knowledge, the deeper will be your understanding of olfactory psychology.
This knowledge includes botanic, aromatherapy and psychoaromatherapy, phytotherapy, chemistry, pheromonal processes and natural perfumery. This is the base on which to develope the knowledge of essential oils.
Based on a language of olfactory archetypes, olfactory psychology aplies this knowledge to human psychea using mostly the schemes of olfactory memories.
