Yeorie

a woman with tendrils of smoke moving across her face

Yeorie

n.
a certain scent that has the power to sweep you back to childhood— the acrid funk of bug spray, the earthy sweetness of dead leaves on wet asphalt, the rebellious twang of gasoline fumes in the summer heat.

From yewthor, a pungent scent + yewre, water-bearer. Pronounced “yoh-ree.”
