Hu Q&A丨Why is there an earthy smell after the rain?

Everyone probably has their favorite.

A special smell that others cannot understand.

for example……

The steam after taking a bath, the ink of a new book,

The smell of raindrops hitting the road when it just rains,

And what I want to talk about today is the fragrance of the soil after the rain.

But this unique "earthy smell" of nature,

Where does it come from?
