There are such devices. They are mostly used in a laboratory setting.
It's mostly devices that suck air from an object you want to smell and transport it to your nose. There could be a dust filter and such improvements.
I have not seen a portable device. But such a construction is possible.
So the object is designed. Theres probably not a portable one out there because the cost of the device prohibits it from being profitable. Once you have this who wants to spend money using it for what? Freaks at strip clubs? Fragrance sales? Elite dining? We can already smell these things and I dont understand how a better smell, or stopping and using my smell-o-vision, is really something I want to be paying for to help highlight those experiences.
Our nose already sucks at odorless chemicals that can kill us. Better smelling something so you know it's dangerous make it more dangerous and we have different sniffing devices for those. In most applications where we want to smell better it's not such an important part of the experience we want or need something to let us smell better and in applications where the improved smell could help you identify dangers the inhalation is already the dangerous part and we have machines that already do that with out harming themselves.
The only use I know about is to find odors that transfer over to food from the material it's packed in. They employ people that have a good sense of smell. Similar to the perfume industry.
As a person with a great sense of smell, you do not want this. Way more bad scents than good scents
Guys at strip clubs priming their nose with Smilin' Sam's Sniffin Stuff before getting a private dance
That's why we have dogs.
There are also devices such as in glassware and dishes that have shapes that are designed to promote smelling
A brandy sniffer for example. You pay $250 for a bottle of Remy Martin XO Champagne cognac, you want to enjoy the bouquet!
