The texture of the grass is present with the paper and the print on the cover of the book. The paper box under the book represents the soil. Readers can feel and associate the moisture of Taiwan with the tracing paper as the outer packing. Moreover, an essential oil producers is invited to modify a limited essential oil for this book, using the design of top note,
