It's not. It's only our practice that merges our senses.
One of the discussions in Conlangery Podcast (Episode 6) mentioned that 
only five languages in the world have separate root words for odors.

I strongly against lujvo. It's non-neutral, not fair and non-scientific.
Then why not replace {titla} with {ka sakta} ?

If so few languages have separate words it doesn't mean that Lojban should 
follow it.
Lojban is for expanding our views on the world.

So I suggest either zi'evla or even gismu !
As for the sounding  we can take them from those five languages cuz most 
natlangs as I said just use descriptive words (in English they 
are Musky, Putrid,Pungent,Camphoraceous, Ethereal,Floral, Pepperminty).
