Scents that enhance memory/learning?!
Question: Scents that enhance memory/learning!?
Are there any particular scents that help enhance learning and memory!?
I know lavender helps relax, so I was wondering if there was anything that can help the mind remember things!?
Thanks!

Answers:
Rosemary and basil essential oils are recognised as oils that helps improve memory!. Peppermint essential oil is more for alertness because of it fresh scent!. Lavender, on the other hand, is relaxing as well as sedative so it doesn't keep you awake!. If you have hypertension, please avoid both rosemary and basil as they will raise your blood-pressure!.Www@Youqa@Cn
Peppermint, or any mint, helps alertness, so it should help memory!. But really, any scent that you are smelling when you are learning, will help you remember, if you smell it like when you take a test!. It's an association thing!.Www@Youqa@Cn
I've tried to find an answer to this very question so that I may introduce an appropriate scent into my classroom!. So far, I've found that orange or lavender are good choices!. Orange, especially in the mornings!.Www@Youqa@Cn
