alt Hacker NewsI began smelling (ha!) much more acutely after living for a few years with some country bumpkins in Seattle. We would take walks together and they could smell mushrooms, flowers, animals, and other things on the wind that I was not privy too.
I think in cities we just aren’t taught to use our noses so that muscle doesn’t get exercised.

I actually grew up in the province and later moved to a city. Can't say it had a noticeable affect on me shrug.

We are taught to use our noses for different things. Smell of piss, feces, gas, garbage, etc.
