“Smell-o-Vision” was predated by “AromaRama” and followed by “Odorama” and some other scratch and sniff attempts. Various motion or “4D” rides have also tried to incorporate smell, then often drop it.
Audiences just don’t like it.

TL;DR it worked but was often considered a poor, synthetic, replacement for the real world scents. Some people liked it, but most seemed to dislike it.
