Biblichlor

 

Biblichor

Biblos: -Latin;  books; plural

Ichor - Latin; the fluid that flows in that flows in the veins of gods

Biblichor: Latin. Noun; the characteristic, faint musty smell of old books

that fills your nostrils when you enter an old library or an old bookstore

that fills your nostrils when you enter an old library or an old bookstore;

or perhaps when you open a long forgotten box in the attic:

the smell that percolates through every filter of your mind/body 

reigniting vivid memories of a beautiful Sunday 

of freshly mown grass and of home-made chocolate cake;

the smell of infinite fantasy worlds:

of warriors and princesses

of dragons and wizards

of love and romances

of adventure and passion between pages.
