Fragrance is caused by many different airborne molecules interacting with your olfactory system in the nose. Different molecules create different smells, for example Ammonia causes the urine smell, and Methyl Mercaptan rotten eggs. Bleach smell is due to chlorine.

Scientists aren't exactly sure how the olfactory senses process these stimuli into their respective smells, hence, no smell-o-vision =(

When an incense stick is ignited, the heat causes the aromatic compounds in the incense to vaporize and release into the air as fragrant smoke. This smoke carries the fragrance molecules, spreading the scent throughout the room.
