The Jordan’s furniture store in Massachusetts uses two different flavors in two sections. In the first section, they use gum scent to go with the youth age desire. In the second section, a rustic furniture and accordingly a pine smell is used. In this way the brand adapts the smell to its products. As a result of perfuming their stores, their sales have increased.
ROLLS ROYCE:
The brand of luxury cars Rolls Royce perfumes the smell of leather and wood inside cars when a customer takes their car to an official workshop of the brand. In this way, the customer has the feeling of a brand new car rather than taking it out of a workshop. This scent strategy is followed today by a large number of second-hand car dealerships and workshops.
STARBUCKS:
The Starbucks coffee shops are an example to follow, they do not contemplate their product as they care about coffee, but they sell the experience of having a delicious coffee in a pleasant and relaxed environment. To do this, they make sure that their premises are constantly flavored with this drink.

To develop these fragrances it is necessary to carry out a market study to perfectly identify the profile of the target audience and adapt the smell to it.
