Olfactory receptors detect smells, and gustatory receptors detect tastes.
Olfactory receptors
Gustatory receptors are part of the sense of taste. They are in your mouth. Olfactory receptors are part of the sense of smell. They are in your nose.
Gustatory receptors are also present in the mouths of animals. These are novel proteins which are able to recognize a variety of chemicals.
The function of receptors is to check about the taste,smell,etc. In our human body there are two types of receptors and they are gustatory receptors and olfactory receptors where as gustatory receptors will detect taste and olfactory receptors will detect smell.
Chemoreceptors
The gustatory detects taste, and the olfactory detects smell.
The receptors of the eye are photo receptors, the ear has auditory receptors, the nose has olfactory (smell) receptors, the skin has tactile (touch)and thermo- (temperature) receptors and the tongue has gustatory (taste) receptors.

In vertebrates the olfactory receptors are located in the cilia of the olfactory sensory neurons. In insects olfactory receptors are located on the antennae and other chemo sensory organs.
The sensory receptors for your nose is the semicircular canals and the cochlea
Gustatory receptors are found on the tongue and pharynx and are taste receptors. They sense particles of foodstuffs dissolved in saliva and provide us with the sense of taste.
