　　The Fragrance of Memories 　　Have you ever remembered something with yournose? Maybe the smell of hot dogs gets you daydreamingabout being at a baseball game. Or the smell ofburnt marshmallows[棉花糖] reminds you of a nightaround a campfire. Scientists know that the senseof smell can trigger[触发] powerful memories.Wouldn’t it be cool to somehow bottle thosememories?
　　That’s exactly what Mark Crames tries todo. His company, Demeter Fragrance, makes morethan 200 scents[香味]. “Imagine every smell inthe world as a musical note. We try to combinethose notes to make a melody.” He haseven created perfumes inspired by thunderstormsand earthworms[蚯蚓]!
　　Everyday smells mean different things todifferent people. “A perfume we call PoisonIvy might remind you of being itchy[发痒的] andmiserable[痛苦的],” Crames says. “But it could make yoursister think of a great time at summer camp.”
　　Crames captures aromas[香气] using a high-techmethod called headspace[顶部空间] technology. Aperfumer takes the source of an aromaand puts it into an airtight container [气密容器].The aroma molecules [分子] are collect-ed from the air and analyzed. A chemist[药剂师]then matches those molecules to ingredients[成分] in afragrance library.
　　But not every smell can be easily copied. “One ofour most requested perfumes is puppy’s breath,” hesays. “But it is so chemically complicated that it’svery tough to capture.”
　　What scents would youlike to bottle? A circus [马戏团] ?Grandma’s spooky[怪异的] basement? Crames may be able to capture your menories,so you can just take a whiff[吸] when you feel like remembering!
　　
　　你试过用鼻子来记事情吗？也许热狗的香味会让你发一场仿如置身棒球比赛的白日梦。又或者，烧棉花糖的味道使你忆起一个篝火之夜。科学家们现在知道嗅觉能触动强烈的回忆。要是能把这些回忆存在小瓶子里不是很棒吗？
　　马克・克拉姆正致力于这个方面。他的“帝门特香水公司”制作了两百多款香型。“不妨把世上的每种味道都想像成一个音符。我们尝试将这些音符组合起来，谱写成一首曲子。”他甚至还创造出灵感源自雷雨和蚯蚓的香水！
　　日常气味对不同的人来说意味着不同的东西。“有一款名为‘致命常春藤’的香水可能使你感觉浑身发痒，很不舒服，”克拉姆说。“但它也可能会让你姐姐联想到夏令营的美好时光。”
　　克拉姆用“顶部空间技术”这种高科技来获取香味。香水师萃取出香源，将它放入气密容器中，再从空气中收集香气分子并加以分析。然后药剂师就会把这些分子与香水库中的成分进行匹配。
　　但并不是每种气味都能被轻易复制。“其中一种最多人询问的香水就是小狗的扑哧喘气，”克拉姆说。“但是它的化学组成相当复杂，所以很难获取。”
　　你想储存什么样的气味呢？马戏团？还是奶奶那诡异的地下室？克拉姆或许能帮你捕捉回忆，因此当你想重拾记忆时，只需用鼻子轻轻一吸！
