Having walked past that spot on many hundreds of occasions, often in the summer, I have also detected a sweet smell in the air. However, I am inclined to believe that its origin was from the many Italian restaurants and pastry shops on and along nearby Hanover Street.

Mike's Pastries alone is one of the most wonderful-smelling places I've ever been in. If you're ever there, take my advice: leave the gun, take the cannolis. And if you are unfamiliar with sfogliatelle, you might just want to acquaint yourself with it. Then, walk next door to Café Vittoria for some real, strong espresso.
