Forbidden fragrances

Coventry's Forbidden Planet has a lot going for it. It's a good selection of books, a really great comics section and, best of all, it's by far the nicest smelling comic book shop I've ever visited. Rather than smelling of unwashed nerds — or, in the case of Krackers, patchouli oil from the head shop across the way — FP in Coventry smells like a branch of Lush. Nice.
