Why do people’s houses have certain smells? What causes it?

274 views

I’m sure you’ve thought the same question about why people’s houses have a certain smell to them. They’re almost always indescribable other than “It smells sweet” or “it’s an old/new building.” Is there an actual reason for houses having (not unpleasant) smells? How would you describe it?

My best friends childhood house always smelled very distinguishable it’s hard to describe. But even now I can recall it. It might be some sort of detergent used on the laundry or they had old books in the bookcases.

I visited about a year ago this friend who lives with his wife in different place in the city, it was weird they had similar undertones of that smell in their home also.
