What an odd request... you want to know my favorite scent?
I'll tell you now- bouquets of flowers don't even make a dent
Sunshine or fresh cut grass may do it for some
But for me, personally, I wouldn't be one

So is it the smell of fresh hot rain on wet dirt?
Maybe a price-tag-still-on brand new skirt?
Perhaps a gentle beachy breeze?
Or the year's first winter freeze?

Could it be a fresh baked apple pie?
A pile of cash stacked so high?
The oldest book on the shelf?
A campfire you made all by yourself?

It's not cinnamon, cotton, or even breakfast in bed
Don't worry-- I won't leave it unsaid...
All these scents are great but nothing else will do
Can't you see it, my love? My favorite scent is you.
