# The major limitation of this category is that one should only make the Bracha for a strong smell and only if the fruit is taken to smell and not to eat. That is, if you pick it up to eat it then one does not recite the bracha, but if one picks it up specifically to smell it one recites the bracha even if one will eat it another time.<Ref>Vezot HaBracha (pg 175, chapter 19) based on Shulchan Aruch O.C. 216:2 and Biur Halacha. He notes, however, that the Chazon Ish OC 35:1 holds that unless one designated the fruit only for smelling one can't recite a bracha of hanoten reyach tov bperiot on that fruit.</ref> | |||
