What is the Speed of Smell? Is It Possible to Actually Launch Smell With a Smell Cannon?

The speed of smell, or olfactory perception, is relatively slow, around 1-5 meters per second, making it theoretically possible to create a smell cannon that can launch odor molecules, but it's extremely challenging due to diffusion and concentration issues.
