Why adding warm water help you to smell the aroma of the methyl salicylate?

Adding warm water to methyl salicylate enhances its aroma because heat increases the volatility of the compound, allowing more molecules to evaporate into the air. This heightened evaporation facilitates the release of aromatic compounds, making the scent more pronounced and detectable. Additionally, warm water may help dissolve the methyl salicylate better, further contributing to the intensity of the aroma.
