Well, there are two kinds of nice book smells. Brand new books, not the paperback versions, the hardcover books with the shiny high quality paper (photobooks for example). ...and of course the old ones, preferably locked away, forgotten about for decades and recently rediscovered. These books tell a story with their composition of aroma and general condition. Similar to an unrestored classic car. I could go on and on about books, their smell, condition, maybe the story behind the previous owner....books are one of the most valueable things in our world. Those great reviews should be printed !

...another nice one are dvds the moment they come out of the shrinkwrap
