Hotel Room

Permanent ID: smellbook:smell:hotel-room · updated 2026-10-19, revision 4

Character EDITORIAL

A hotel room smells clean, soft and fabric-like, mixing fresh linen, cleaning products, carpet and climate-controlled air.

Words: clean, soft, fabric. Families: Temperature and texture, Fresh and clean, Animal, material and lived-in.

States: fresh (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: Hotel.
