Smellbound

smellbound portland powells books

Does anything smell as good as a book? Yes, an entire building full of books. I never quite had a word to describe for the way that the scent of paper, ink, and glue entices me…until I saw this sign. It reads:

Smellbound…held as if under a spell by the scent of books

Spotted this in Powell’s City of Books in Portland, Oregon. A person could happily get lost in that place for days.
