Summary/Abstract: This work tries to examine the significance and function of scents in poetry of Aleksa Šantić. Scents are poetic elements in Šantić`s poetry, and their varieties and frequencies have great importance in concepts of memory, spaces, and emotions. Their presence or absence in a poem develops poetic image, and, including that fact, their meaning is highly symbolical. Scents as poetic elements are expression of Šantić`s artistic virtuosity as well.
