Favorite smells

What aromas do you like? I love the smell of chocolate . It might sound weird, but I also like the smell of gasoline (sort of ), the fresh scent of a newly opened plastic toy, and the smell of those alcohol swabs doctors use on your before giving shots .

The chocolate one I understand......but petroleum products and alcohol? Good lord man!

Maybe you should stay away from glue and magic markers.


I love the smell of dirt, wet or dry.

Ponderosa pines, tomato gardens, baking cookies, old books, babies, rosin, lemon cleaner stuff.

Ben, you must`ve been bored. I am tonight so I`ll answer. I love the smell of tulips and hyacinths and also lilacs. And I love when someone cooks with garlic and onions. What a wonderful aroma. And I love the smell of raked leaves on a fall day. But my favorite smell is newly mown grass. Nohing tops that!

The countryside after the rain! and also the scent of books (not only old ones), i often smell the book i´m reading.

But i hate the smell of perfums! especially at cosmetic sections in supermarkets. If i can, i always avoid to pass through :x

I love the smell of spring, when the ice is melting and you can hear the birds sing for the first time each year. There is something special about that smell that comes after a rainfall. I think I like most of the smells associated with flowers and nature. I also like the smell of a good steak .

I also agree with fatt middle, on books. I smell them too while reading.

There are certainly a lot of book smellers out there.... I count myself among them. Also, I like the forest after a rainstorm, and the smell of some really good foods, depending I what I feel like eating.

My absolute favorite smells would have to be dead skunk and goat manure.

I never realized how many other book smellers are out there. Anyone else?

Btw, the next time I bury my nose into the spine of a book and inhale deeply....I will think of you two.

You like the smell of old books? The really old ones from the library smell just awful IMO. New books are ok though . I never really smell perfume because my mom is very allergic to fragrances, so we have to make sure none of us wear it. So I guess I can safely say I don't like them

Life :smokin:

hey Spock, don´t smoke here: this is a thread about good smells!





... well i can admit it if it´s Longbottom Leaf

:smokin: :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:


OK, the aroma of incense when you enter The Temple of Heaven in Beijing.

I like the scent of new cars...anything on the BBQ...most foods...and I love the scent of spring Gasoline? The alcohol used for shots is ok ( )

campfires, as long as the wind isn't blowing toward you, and as long as there aren't any plastic forks that silly people have thrown in.

Oh yeah, I like that smell of burning outside, often from campfires, too

What a coincident....I am having a bonfire tonight. And I agree...fires outdoors do smell wonderful......ahhhh...I can smell it now.

I love the smell of JC Penney's and Pier 1 Imports.. I'm not sure why.

I like the smell of books too but only if they're taken care of. I adore the smell of coconut, and thus also that surfboard wax people use. I like the smell of Downy fabric softener sheets and Irish Spring soap and the smell of the beach (except for when there's red tide)
