Garden After Rain

Permanent ID: smellbook:smell:garden-after-rain · updated 2026-10-06, revision 3

Character EDITORIAL

A garden after rain smells wet, green and earthy, with fresh leaves, damp soil and flowers that seem brighter than before.

Words: wet, green, earthy, fresh. Families: Fresh and clean, Wood, earth and stone.

States: wet (EDITORIAL). A state says how an entry is met, such as wet, aged or roasted. It does not create a new smell, and it adds no scientific fact by itself: states marked EDITORIAL come from the entry's own records, and only those marked VERIFIED are reported by a VERIFIED claim.

Met in: Garden, Park.
