These odorants, he said, can act as the trigger or catalyst for these memories.

些有气味的东西，他说，能够作为记忆的触发器或催化剂。

And any given odorant, like this pizza, is made up of hundreds of different chemicals that you can smell, like the thymol of the oregano, the butyric acid of the cheese, and the acetylpyrazine of the crust.

现在，当我把分子吸进鼻子时，过程就开始。意味着你要能闻到什么，气味必须是挥发性的，或者处于气态，被吸进鼻孔。
