adjective
of or relating to the sense of smell (Merriam-Webster-Dictionary)
The word was encountered in “The Inclusive Museum” By Sina Bahram
The sentence that it was encountered in was “He found exhibits with audio, olfactory, or tactile components”
The author utilizes this word to say that the museum not only had audio, but smell and things that you could touch/feel. This is important to the paragraph in the article because its essentially saying the guide limited the experience of being in a museum because from a earlier lesson with the ways of seeing video, when looking at paintings or objects your interpretation of them can be shaped through the audio that is played along with it. Because this impacted the author so much she decided that museums aren’t doing enough for disabled people, simply acknowledging the disability is not enough.
