Morning

What does the morning smell like? EDITORIAL

Each line is the entry's own editorial description. Toothpaste, Shampoo, Coffee, Toast and Fresh Laundry also have VERIFIED claims of their own, on their pages.

• Toothpaste: Toothpaste smells cool, clean and minty, with a sharp, tingling freshness that reaches the back of the nose.
• Shampoo: Shampoo smells clean, fresh and cosmetic, often with fruity or floral notes over a soft, soapy base.
• Coffee: Coffee smells roasted, warm and deep, with a bitter edge and hints of toast, nuts, caramel or dark fruit depending on the brew.
• Toast: Toast smells warm, dry and roasted, with a golden crispness and a nutty, slightly sweet depth.
• Morning Kitchen: A morning kitchen smells warm and fresh, a mix of brewing coffee, browning toast, cut fruit and recently wiped surfaces.
• Fresh Laundry: Fresh laundry smells soft, clean and airy, with a light floral or powdery note and a gentle warmth from drying.
