Aroma is an unincorporated community in White River Township, Hamilton County, Indiana.
Aroma was named in the 19th century by William P. Haworth, who kept a small store there.[2] Aroma was a descriptive name, perhaps for the scent of fresh-cut hay.[3] [4] A post office was established at Aroma in 1870, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1902.[5]
