Researchers from the Institute of Psychology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a sniff-triggered device that controlled the delivery of different smells.
These odours included chemical compounds that either had apple-like, onion-like or flower-like smells.
A total of 229 participants were tested to see if they could distinguish between two different smells presented to them with precisely measured delays and in varying orders.
They found that when the two odours were presented one after the other, participants could tell the difference when the delay was just 60 milliseconds faster than previously thought.
