Aromaticity
Aromaticity is a molecular characteristic of a compound. It refers to a compound with a cyclical structure containing a sequence of resonance bonds. An aromatic molecule tends to be more stable than a non-aromatic one, and often these compounds may have odors. This is actually how aromatic compounds got their name.
