A unique smell is associated with rain in the Borderland, and it's linked to the Creosote Bush. This plant releases a compound called petrichor when it gets wet, producing the distinctive scent. A local man has found a way to capture this smell, along with other real-life scents, and bottle them.

He doesn't create brand-name perfumes, but instead focuses on preserving authentic smells from various sources, including the rain. Further details about this man's work and his perfumes are available from KVIA ABC-7, the source of this information.
