This paper explores a form of sensuous methodology known as smellwalks. Smellwalks are a method which require a reorientation of the senses to temporarily emphasize the information received from the nose. During a smellwalk, the researcher employs an active form of smelling to examine their environment that diverges from normal smell perception. In this research, smellwalks are deployed to investigate the experience of lockdown in a suburban town in Aotearoa-New Zealand. Six solo walks were undertaken, three during lockdown and three out of it, to compare the presence and absence of smells during these periods. In attuning to the invisible, intangible, mundane, and small details of life via smell, smellwalks opened opportunities for new embodied and material knowledge about lockdown experience. It is argued that smellwalks offer a sensory and embodied method with the capacity to attend to more than vision and representation.

本文探讨了一种称为嗅觉漫游的感觉方法。嗅觉步道是一种需要重新定向感官以暂时强调从鼻子接收到的信息的方法。在气味漫步过程中，研究人员采用一种主动的嗅觉形式来检查其环境，该环境与正常的嗅觉有所不同。在这项研究中，部署了嗅觉步道来调查新西兰Aotearoa郊区郊区的封锁经验。进行了六次单人散步，其中三次是在锁定期间，三次是单次行走，以比较在此期间气味的存在与否。通过嗅觉使生活中看不见的，无形的，平凡的和微小的细节发生变化，嗅觉步道为有关锁定体验的新的体现和物质知识打开了机会。
