San Francisco's (un)official smell

Here's what you, our creative readers, had to say:

🌸 "Jasmine. Walking around on a cool night when the jasmine is in bloom is a pleasure no other city can offer." –Chris E.

🦀 "Dungeness crab, cooking." –David F.

☕ "The smell should be coffee roasting." –Frank

🚃 "The burning-wood aroma of the cable-car brakes.” –Janet D.

👃 "SF’s aroma? Urine, hands down." –John D.

Yes, but: The top vote getter was … drumroll please … sourdough bread! 🍞

Thanks so much for all your responses.

• Next time, though, we might follow the advice of reader Darryl F.: "If you want to determine the smell of San Francisco … do a scentsus."
