Yes.Can people tell what an object is just by smelling it?
yes that is a silly question, an orange is an orange an apple is an apple a chocolate is a chocolate, human smell is based something like 80% on taste. Now if you try a shoe or a gym sock someone might have a harder time not meant to be disgusting just try and think about what we are smelling here. If the person already knows what the object is it could be a rigged situation where they are just trying to make money off of you.
In some cases yes. Like you can smell the ammonia or the ink in the pen
