Stanley's son-in-law, who lives on the premise of Childwickbury Manor with his partner and son. Childwickury is a place of total serenity, in a manner completely unique to itself. From the smells of healthy trees to the ever-present birds chirping somewhere nearby, one is always "one with nature," while the smell of old buildings and the sound of farm equipment and startled cattle are reminders of civilization, and a very old one. At night there is an almost eerie absolute…

The people living near these farms constantly have to deal with the smell of the lagoons which hold all the waste. The residents want laws made so they do not have to deal with the smell of pigs all the time everyday. The particles that spread throughout the air has also been a concern that lawmakers are looking at. "In the December 2003 issue of Environment & Climate News…

One of the most shocking aspects of life and etiquette in Elizabethan England is hygiene. Can you imagine living in a world without running water or plumbing? Where bathing was rare and toilets were nonexistent? A world without toothbrushes? These are all things that the people who lived during Shakespeare's lifetime had to deal with.

Ashima must maintain between her and Ashoke, to not be too intimate and be a good “Bengali wife”, again an archaic chain of culture tying them down from becoming western in nature. On the other hand, in “Perfume”, Grenouille’s lack of any odor or smell sets him apart from the rest, almost alienating him and causing others to fear him, as exclaimed by the wet nurse in the second paragraph “He’s possessed by the devil.” This evidence is used later to explain his incessant killing spree and hunt…
