Sony Style stores, which sell the company's consumer electronics, puff a sweetish scent with citrus bases and vanilla overtones into the air. "They wanted to appeal to a female buyer more intimidated by electronic items," says Van Epps of ScentAir, which helped Sony develop its secret formula. Christine Belich, Sony's vice president of visual merchandising, says that it's not possible to connect the scent directly to a boost in sales but the goal is to create an enjoyable shopping environment where customers want to linger. She adds that the scent was designed to appeal to both men and women. (The scent can be quite subtle—it could hardly be detected on a recent visit to the Sony Style store at Pentagon City Mall in Arlington, Va.) ~~~~~~~~~~~ Whether being stimulated by sound or smell, consumers are usually blissfully unaware of the fact that they are shopping under the influence. "The average consumer doesn't understand that they are being manipulated in that environment," says Anna Mattila, associate professor of marketing at Pennsylvania State University.
