Step outside, breathe deeply, and absorb yourself in the feeling it brings. What makes fall air smell so good? 🍂 When leaves decompose, the sugars and carbohydrates contained within break down, which emits organic compounds.

Combined, these two things make the smells of fall truly unique and blissful.
