Dear Mari, I do believe you can dream a smell. The sub concious does some strange things while we sleep. Our brains are working all night long on something. I always go to bed with a good book, it calms my mind and leaves me in a state of peace before sleep. I pick good books, which direct my mind to better places, full of love and adventure. Usually I dream about the books.I would not like to wake up to a horrible smell eithor. Put a lavender sachet under your pillow perhaps, or a nice smelling bar of soap wrapped in a napkin. You will dream of that scent I bet instead of the coffee. It is all in telling your mind what you want to dream and smell. Just my opinion. Pleasant dreams, and no coffee. ginnie
