people in fanfiction are so good at identifying v specific smells. I literally struggle to identify vanilla when I’m sniffing a candle labelled “VANILLA” how are these kids getting woodsmoke, rain, mint, and a whiff of byronic despair from a fuckin tshirt
A t-shirt? How about balls? Balls in fanfiction be smelling musky, salty, woodsy, spicy, earthy, masculine, piquant, tangy, zesty, Cool Ranch, fuckin’ everything except what balls actually smell like, which is low tide.
The next time you’re in a store with “health food,” find the bulk bin of nutritional yeast, and take a whiff.
All (healthy and reasonably clean) balls smell like that. ALL OF THEM.
Thankfully nutritional yeast tastes much better than it smells. Also let’s face it cheese smells like feet and sauerkraut and canned beans smell like farts.
