摘要
This study investigates the contribution of extraordinary positive sensory experiences to the development of destination brand love utilizing two studies. Study 1, based on online reviews, finds that destination brand love stems from extraordinary sensory experiences. A survey collecting longitudinal data in Study 2 further examines that common sensory experiences do not influence destination brand love significantly and reveals that momentary happiness and retrospective happiness are serial mediators between the extraordinary sensory experiences and destination brand love. Thus, these findings suggest that providing extraordinary positive sensory experiences is an effective way to facilitate destination brand love.
