Petrichor: why does rain smell so good? There's some chemistry to the pleasant smell of rain after a long, dry spell.

Oui 😃 , @michavez.bsky.social et @severinem.bsky.social c’est le #petrichor qui enchante @imanerod.bsky.social !
Humains, êtres sensibles à cette odeur, saviez-vous qu’elle est en partie d’origine bactérienne ?

Ever noticed that earthy, fresh scent after a rainstorm? It’s called petrichor, and it's actually caused by bacteria.
