What's your favorite scent?
I'm always curious about the scents people respond to, and how those smells influence other areas of one's life.
Me? I like woodsmoke best. (Apple cider is a close second and cake-y smells are third.) When I think of woodsmoke I think of mesquite or juniper in a cabin fireplace in the distance on a frosty night.
We're having one of those here in LA -- it's pouring -- and a few fireplaces are going. It can surprise people that May and June lean cooler in Los Angeles, but we have two local terms for the weather phenomenon: May Gray and June Gloom.
Monty does not care for either period, because then he has to cheer up guests who find the pool too chilly to use. Fair enjoys cooler weather. Gomery doesn't mind it, and Sutton complains a bit, because the fruit stand is essentially outdoors.
So, woodsmoke. I like it so much I set some Very Big Moments near The Redwoodian's fireplace. I can smell all of those scenes.
Yeah, I said it.
Tell me your favorite scent and why. Maybe I can find a way to work those into "Fairwil"? We'll see. :)
