vellichor UK /ˈvɛl.əˌkɔː/US /ˈvɛl.əˌkɔɹ/ noun1 •The pensive nostalgia and temporality of used bookstores; the feeling evoked by the scent of old books or paper.It seemed that nobody else was in the shop, so I wandered around, both intimidated and entranced by the sense of vellichor as I traced my fingers along the leather spines of books beyond my time. — 2017
