Your eyes and fingers may be your primary way of interacting with online casinos, but your nose nowadays belongs in a brick and mortar casino. Video lottery machines and slot machines have become so popular that they have become the main source of information about the state of the gambling industry in the United States. If you visit a casino at all, you can probably tell what the casino lobby smells like.

Nowadays, your favorite casino’s ventilation system has a box-like apparatus that exudes the resort’s signature scent while air is pumped in and out.

In 1991, the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas began to spread the smell of coconut butter, matching the casino’s tropical resort theme. Other famous Vegas casinos have since followed suit, with Mirage installing a tropical fragrance system in 1992. The company also makes candles and room sprays, which are made from a combination of natural scents made from coconut oil, coconut milk and honey. While Mirage introduced the technique in 1991, when it was introduced by Mark Peltier of AromaSys, casinos that give their floors their own scent have been doing so for decades.

The particular fragrance that is used to successfully scent your casino is one that deserves expert consideration. Next time you visit Vegas, try to see if you can smell the different notes in the casino scents.

It is possible that casinos have spent thousands of dollars designing fragrances just so that their customers reject them because of the smell.

Given the large amounts of money that are handled in casinos, patrons and employees may be tempted to cheat and steal, either in collusion or independently, but most casinos have put security measures in place to prevent this. Anyone who spends time in a casino knows that casinos are designed to make you lose the money you probably lost.
