My parents have a huge library in their house with thousands of paper books that they've collected over the years. You just have to walk into that room to realize that yes, books do smell good. When I was younger and still living at home I just loved spending time there, looking at the cover art, reading a book in a comfortable chair.

I have a reader now because it's so much easier to carry around, but I'll probably never stop buying (collecting) paper books.
