The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of a sensory branding framework grounded on sensory stimuli, sensory perceptions and sensory symbolism. Moreover, the role of societal culture in developing global branding sensory strategies is considered. Research findings and conclusions on how brand managers can apply the framework are presented.
