摘要：The intrinsic connection between humans and nature, which significantly impacts human well-being in our increasingly urbanized society, has attracted considerable scholarly attention in the last decades. Urban vegetation offers city dwellers multiple ecosystem services, enabling multiple sensory experiences and interactions, thereby benefiting human health. In comparison with visual interaction, the olfactory experience of urban vegetation is less studied and undervalued. In this study, existing literature is reviewed to summarize and synthesize how plant scents increase the multiple ecological values especially cultural and health-related benefits of urban green spaces (UGS), improve environmental equity, and enhance residents' well-being. Three key pathways have been investigated in the literature, including physiological, psychological, and social pathways, which enable both direct and indirect interactions between urban residents and vegetation. Facing the uneven distribution of plant smellscape driven by geophysical and anthropogenic factors, a research framework is proposed to integrate plant smellscape into green space planning, thereby enhancing human health and wellbeing.
