The smell of fall. It is the hot cup of coffee in the crisp morning with a whiff of pumpkin spice.
You step outside and smell the fresh rain that had fallen on the ground, making the crunchy leaves wet.
After a nice walk with the dog, you come inside and girl up with a cup of tea while he curls up in your lap.
The smell of fall is fresh. It is unique in its own way, different from the other seasons.
Fall is perfect. There's no smell of pollen in the air or hot sun rays blinding you, there's no need to layer all your puffer jackets to stay warm.
Fall is the perfect season; it smells like heaven.
Fall doesn't smell like pumpkin carving. It doesn't smell ghastly.
The smell of fall isn't being scared at night when the demons creep outside.
The smell of fall is comforting. It is warm, it is soothing, it is crisp.
It is fall.
