The phrase "the smell of them was sweeter to her than any rose" helps the reader understand **how tempting the smell of the meat is to Goha’s wife**. This comparison emphasizes her hunger and desire for the meat, making it more appealing to her than something traditionally considered sweet or lovely like roses.
