There is also the bonus that you can keep swirling and taking sniffs, trying to pinpoint that aroma, versus a taste, mouth-feel, finish judgment call. I am a big fan of aroma.
Odors come from molecules in the air that stimulate receptors in the nose; if an organism does not have a receptor for that particular odor molecule, for that organism, the odor has no smell. The senses of smell and taste are directly related because they both use the same types of receptors.
