Which still made little sense considering that what they consider nice is so different than what humans consider nice, look at what they like to eat.

They accepted what they were told or experienced without much reflection over the larger implications or even a comment to themselves that something was odd. This one smells like sea spray, kelp and a touch of driftwood, this one smells like chalk and paper, that one I can believe smells like jasmine and roses, ok, sure, that's believable, but when she opened the door and discovered the woman who smelled faintly of menthol and pencil shavings standing on the front stoop it was just too much.
