QUESTIONS ABOUT MORNING STREET
A morning street smells cool and fresh, with drifts of coffee and warm bread from cafés and bakeries over the mineral smell of damp or cool pavement. Traffic adds a faint exhaust note, and shop doors bring brief puffs of cleaning products or flowers. The smell is light and changeable as the city wakes.
It is met during early commutes and walks to work or school, on city streets as shops open, and around bakeries, cafés and markets setting up in the morning.
Typical settings: early commute, city street, shops opening.

Answers marked EDITORIAL are written by SmellBook editors to describe the experience and add no scientific fact. Answers marked VERIFIED point to claims on published sources, checked against each source's own summary where one was available (each claim's page says how); what each claim supports is in its own text and scope.
SmellBook adds citations claim by claim when reliable sources are available. Everything else on this page is editorial description, labelled separately.
