Abstract
Recent research showed a surprising absence of relaxing effect of music and odor when jointly presented. In our study, if time distortions observed (using a bisection task) in monomodal conditions disappear in a multimodal condition, regardless of the stimulus arousal property, sensory overload can be confirmed as an explanation.
