"The Bachelor" season 2 wrapped up its premiere episode last week, with Lauren Bushnell receiving the first rose and seven girls leaving the mansion. A new episode airs tonight and bachelor Ben Higgins will continue his quest to find the right woman for him.

There are now 21 contestants who will be fighting for Higgins' attention and love, and in tonight's episode, some of the ladies will be out with the man for a weird date.

According to E!Online, six of the contestants will be going out with the software salesman and they will be having their date in a "Love Lab." On this date, Higgins will be blindfolded and will sniff each of the ladies and tell the doctor in the lab what he thinks about their scents.

Based on the preview clip for the upcoming episode, news anchor Olivia Caridi, who received the First Impression rose in episode 1, was described by Higgins to have a "sweet" smell.  

Higgins also described Amanda Stanton to have a "beachy" scent, while one of the twins was described to smell "fruity."

Meanwhile, Caridi told E! News that Higgins smelled "unreal."

Ben will also go on a second group date, which will be at a Los Angeles high school. Ten ladies will meet the bachelor at the local high school, but Lace Morris, who got the final rose in the premiere episode, will become more desperate to win Higgins' attention, as stated in the official synopsis from ABC.

She will try hard to redeem herself after her awkward conversation with Higgins.

The show's first one-on-one date will also be featured in episode 2. Chris Harrison will let the couple meet Ice Cube and Kevin Hart and will be treated to a special performance by Amos Lee.

Catch the upcoming sniffing date, "trip down memory lane," date and Higgins' one-on-one date tonight in "The Bachelor" at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
