SATURATE

I couldn't find a better word but a teacher might be able to change the sentence.

When going into a perfume shop, after smelling 3 different perfumes, your nose gets saturated and you can no longer smell anything.

Thank you in advance

With the verb 'numb' do I say gets numb or becomes numb?

How would you have tried to explain this situation? Could you give me your sentence?

You may say either; they have the same meaning.
