Then, three working hypotheses about interactions between olfaction and vision are discussed. The first hypothesis is that the cross-modal interactions are the result of cross- modal associations between olfactory and visual stimuli. Second is top-down processing activated by visual stimuli a#ects olfaction. Third is congruency e#ect. Several studies reporting interactions between olfaction and other sensory/cognitive information, such as gustatory stimuli, somatosensory and kinetic stimuli (body position and sni$ng), and knowledge about odor sources are also introduced. These studies suggested that the one who wants to understand individual olfactory world should understand these complex processes in olfactory perception. Key words : olfactory perception, color of odor stimuli, visual images for odor sources, association between odor and appearance, top-down processing
