This was fascinating - alien planet, finding your fated mate, alien scenting, a ritual fucking in front of the town, scientific research? It took me a little bit to get into this, but once I did I inhaled it. I really liked that while the lead's couldn't communicate with vocal language for the majority of the story, they made up for it with hand/body movements and scenting. Also, very fun learning about alien gender presentation and body anatomy.
