Whenever someone comes back from a walk outside on a crisp day, they have an odor that’s distinctive of outside. My nose is not the best, but I’d say somewhat metallic. What is causing that smell?
In: Chemistry
Apparently everyone smells “outside” a little differently. Metallic is a common descriptor. (https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/environment/3255625/science-behind-outdoor-smells-ben-dolphin-opinion/)Scents definitely linger and spread depending on the temperature/weather conditions. That’s why fall smells kinda burnt. There are also the sweat smells of an individual from exerting themselves in an un-climate-controlled environment.
