Genesis27:27

27 And he came near and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, see, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field, which the LORD hath blessed .

Which is full of odoriferous Herbs and Flowers and Fruits, and Spices, with some of which Esaus Garments might be perfumed in the chest where they were laid, as the manner now is. These garments smell not of the sheep-cotes and stables, as Iacobs do, but of the Fields in which Esau is conversant.
