[A] form of color perception is synesthesia. Synesthetes, people who have this perception abnormality, perceive their environment by using a peculiar combination of two or more senses to understand and relate to the world around them. For them, sounds have color, shapes may have flavors, and scents may have color counterparts. This is not a metaphoric relation, but a true and real way of experiencing the world.
