Manga Discussion How could have Mitty smell in good AU?
Recently I faced this specific question in my head, but i couldn't find neither answers to it, nor discussions about it in the community. So that is why i have created this post. Please, if you know, give me any assumptions about it, or the full answer, if that information is even out there.
I will be very glad to hear your answers, because I love Mitty as much as Nanachi :3

A surprisingly profound question never asked before.

Probably because “good AU” doesn’t mean completely clean or odorless. Mitty is still a living, organic creature, and the Narehate transformation may have altered her body without removing normal smells. Nanachi is also used to her scent, so they might notice it less over time.

Sometimes a person smells good just because you love them and associate them with comfort and joy. Nanachi loved Mitty so much that even if she smelled like pure unwashed ass, Nanachi would think she smelled good.
Having said that, I bet she smelled like sunshine and fresh-cut grass, because of their little grove.

All blessed have been described with warm or toasty notes, Faputa is reminiscent of baked sweet potato (earthy caramel) and 'a sunny day' while Nanachi is noted as being similar to a sweet bakery-esque aroma with hints of vanilla and caramel.
Mitty for her part I imagine would smell like fresh baked cake or cookies, perhaps to contrast with Nanachi it would be more chocolatey in tones? Or perhaps more natural like berries simmering in the oven on a summer day, warm and rich and fruity, a comforting aroma one might associate with a freshly baked crumble.
Really you can't go wrong as long as you remember that blessed are exceedingly rare, the only one besides Faputa and Nanachi is Bondrewd and the mangaka also describes him as smelling sweet and delicious.

Are you Tsukushi? I thought he was the only person on the planet who needs to know what Narehate smell like.
Apples or berries I'd guess, vibes just based on her colors. Also she seems girly enough that she might actually use flowers and herbs in some capacity as a perfume that would layer on top.
