Evosmos is a suburbs of the Thessaloniki Urban Area. Evosmos' first dramatic increase in population occurred when refugees from Asia Minor settled in the area in the early 20th century. The municipality was originally called Harmankioi (Χαρμάνκιοι). In 1953, it became an independent community and was renamed Neos Koukloutzas (Νέος Κουκλουτζάς). Two years later, it was renamed again to Evosmos, meaning "a place that smells nice", a marsh having been drained.
The former flag of Evosmos (Kokkonis website) was white with the municipal emblem - with the main elements in blue and white only and not in full colours.
