We study olfaction during development and disease (PD, anosmia) and odours produced by microbiome of animals.
ISOAMYL ACETATE (C7H14O2): Fruity smell of bananas, pears, apples and many other fruits.

PETRICHOR: The evocative scent that arises when RAIN kisses the parched earth. The essence of rejuvenation and nostalgia (Petrichor cafe, Edinburgh)
GEOSMIN is a volatile bicyclic alcohol, made from geranyl bi phosphate by bacteria. Also made by blue green algae and plant.
