       shove an incense cone up your nose

       Scented air freshener sheets already exist for installation in home HVAC vents. Is that close enough to say "baked"?

       Aren't there certain scents which are *proven* to keep people calm and prevent anger/crime? I think cinnamon is one of them.....pipe it in and watch muggings drop....they should also paint the walls pink (as they do in some prisons)

       And lacy curtains. The problem on the underground sections of the London Underground is that the air gets polluted with dust and particles of burnt brake pad from the trains.
I vote for the smell of melted butter.

If it doesn't work, then this is just an assault on my senses with offensive odors. Again, shove it up your nose if you want to smell it - I don't.

If it does work as you describe, then it is neurological control, which is a violation of my right to privacy and self-direction.

So, shove it up your nose.
