COMPARE TWO SMELLS
Mushroom vs Soil
Both are earthy and damp. Mushroom is rounder and more savoury, with a slightly fungal sweetness; soil is mineral and broad, the smell of the ground rather than of one thing growing in it.
Soil
Earthy, damp and organic impressions associated with exposed ground and garden soil.
