You Smell Good

Like chocolate chip cookies baking, or a laundromat.

Mmmm mmmm good.

Demeter makes perfumes that smell like chocolate chip cookies, a laundromat, cotton candy, cremecicle, dirt, brownie, sugar cookie, angel food cake and other smelly things.

I might see if I can synthesize the smell of fresh bread baking. Or maybe the smell of the ground after a rain. After I learn some chemistry skills that is.

Howstuffworks "What causes the smell after rain?"

The word of the day awhile back was petrichor, the pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell. Probably won't be using the word petrichor too much in conversation but I love the thought it conveys.


I've got to be begging off now. So I'll say good night to you and wish you a great Friday kind and gentle reader.
