Smelling sense is precious. There are some unforgettable moments, furtive, intense, that remind you why you are where you are, why you do what you are doing. The memory of that morning, the nose on a rose, is one of those rare moments. 
A few minutes, perhaps twenty at the most, which are set in my memory as a sensory explosion. And which remind me why I chose my profession.
