Can you predict what something smells like just from its chemical structure?
Turns out yes — and a model can learn it.
Smell is molecular. Specific shapes bind to specific receptors in your nose. That pattern is encodable.
Feed it a molecule, get odor descriptors back:
Ethanol → alcoholic (87%) + ethereal (62%)
Isoamyl alcohol → floral (71%) + fruity (58%) — this is literally what makes bananas smell like bananas
