I stayed at MGM this month and loved the scent in the casino. I especially loved walking in from the NYNY walkway because the scent was overwheming. I remember thinking I'd wear it as a cologne. I recently read here that the scent is rose and jasmine. HOW VEGAS WORKS: The man behind casinos' scent science Mark Peltier, president of AromaSys, says smell is a powerful sense, and Strip resorts hire him to capitalize on it. MGM resorts spokesman, Gordon Absher, reported that hotel employees were evacuated from one of the Las Vegas Strip casino's four towers when alarms went off at about 2 a.m. Guests and staff were evacuated for a period of two hours before being let back into the building. MGM Springfield is a new 240 room hotel and casino located in downtown Springfield. It features 74,000 square feet of gaming, 34,000 square feet of meeting space, movie theater, bowling alley. Dining choices include The Chandler Steakhouse, Costa, TAP Sports Bar and South End Market.
A trademark feature of any Las Vegas casino is the distinctive scent that immediately assaults your nose as you enter the property. While some visitors find fragrances used on the casino to be offensive, some patrons adore the distinct aroma of their favorite gaming floor.
A psychological tactic, resorts carefully select aromas to support their brand image, mask unpleasant odors, and keep you parked in front of a slot machine longer. In Fact, an early 90's study by Dr. Alan Hirsch looked at differences in 'coin in' or money gambled in a section of a casino using no scent one weekend and then introducing scent the next. The scented area showed a 45.1% increase in money gambled over the previous weekend. Hirsch also had a separate area of the casino floor where no fragrances were used either weekend and coin in was essentially flat. The bottom line is that fragrances make customers more likely to stick around and play for a longer period of time.
Most Vegas regulars have a favorite Las Vegas casino aroma that keeps them coming back. We crave the moment the smell hits our nostrils after being away for months or even years. It can be a nostalgic sensation, immediately reminding you of past trips, big wins, and good times.
We got to wondering – Is it possible to purchase your favorite casino's fragrance for use at home? After all, what better way to get over the post-Vegas blues than giving your home the distinctive tropical scent of properties such as Mandalay Bay or Mirage?
