Why Does Everything Stink Less in Winter?

The video explains how our perception of smells changes with the seasons due to temperature, humidity, and the activity of volatile organic compounds. In warmer months, more scent molecules are present and travel faster, while humidity helps disperse odors. The trigeminal nerve, which detects temperature and touch, also influences how we perceive smells, contributing to seasonal differences in scent perception.
