Shikamaru Nara (Naruto)

How They Smell

• The obvious one is cigarettes.
• But if you catch him right after a shower or he’s been gone on a mission that took longer than he expected (and he ran out of cigarettes a few days ago), sometimes you can catch something else.
• He smells a little like an old book, maybe a little dusty but comforting and warm. A little hint of fresh ink.
• When he cooks the smells tend to linger on his skin and hair, especially something warm and spicy.
• There is always an underlying smell of grass.
• Smoke, books, ink, grass….
