This Note utilises the idea of 'smellwalks' as a novel way of engaging with qualitative data. Based on a larger study of victims-/survivors of conflict-related sexual violence, it argues that smelling data - and allowing ourselves to viscerally imagine the odours and scents that the data evoke for us - can foster deeper insights into interviewees' embodied experiences; in this case, embodied experiences of war and armed conflict. Within the data - consisting of 63 semi-structured interviews with victims-/survivors of conflict-related sexual violence in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH), Colombia and Uganda - there were frequent references to food and cooking. This Note follows the scent trails within two particular interviews - one from BiH and the other from Colombia
