Good Afternoon New York!! A Travelogue Post

I've finally made it to New York after a long night flight from Las Vegas. Unfortunately, I cannot check in to my hotel until about three; so, I'm forced to do some sightseeing while being a little tired at the same time. I don't expect to get much sleep anyway. Sleep in America's largest city is an oxymoron.

So, what is my take of the scents of NYC so far? Right now I'm near the Central Park area, specifically the southern area. I'm also close to Columbus Circle. The notes of this area are a slight scent of sweet humidity, exhaust, a slight hint of urine (this seems to be a standard note for many American cities), expensive perfumes and a mixture of ethnic and American restaurants. I can also sense a leathery note and a small hint of green. The smell of the City is very ripe. It is a scent of a crowded and bustling city.
