I would happily be bound to a big old building full of books with booksmell tbh.

nothing like entering a bookstore, having that crisp booksmell enter your nostrils, and immediately having to take a shit

Is there any better feeling than the smell of books?

📖 Wednesday Book Fact!

The smell of old books has a name: bibliosmia. That vanilla scent is lignin in the paper breaking down into vanillin - same compound as real vanilla.

Old books or new? #WednesdayBookFact #Bibliosmia #BookSmell

Is any smell better than that of a new book? #Books #BookSmell

i love these shitty paperback classics that you used to be able to get at books-a-million back in the day, they had lots of great titles for basically free that have those darkish pages that have incredible booksmell

i have a bunch of them, for all of those reasons I just said

In 2010 I visited a library in Gothenburg, Sweden, and was immediately hit by that wonderful booksmell. I thought, "I don't care if I can't read a single book here. This is a library, these are my people, and I am home." The first book I saw? Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. In English. 💙📚😀

I did actually used to sniff books in bookshops, as a child, to see whether they had true #booksmell. If they did, I'd silently offer the book to my brother. He'd silently nod, if he agreed.

I can't read it without letting all the booksmell out.

After resting for two months in bicarb of soda, it’s time for the smell test. And it is looking good - time to clean the book a bit more and then it can join my collection. Love how endpaper illustrations shine through. #picturebooks #booksmell #restoration #hebrewpublishingcompany

God I love little independent bookstores, just getting lost amongst the dusty booksmell and stacks of tomes for hours on end 💜

Fun Fact: This is in the top three favorite smells of mine. I actually have an old china cabinet I keep my classic literature in along with my antiquarian books as well.

Heart of Oak smells of clean air, a deciduous forest (oaks, maples, birch, lots of ferns and grasses) beside a lake in late spring just after a morning rain shower
