Smells I *love*!

The original "Windowlene" (the one in the pink bottle - UK folks will know!)

Vicks VapoRub

Ortigia's Indian Fig scented candles

Jasmine

Mown grass in the summer

Bonfires in the Autumn

Damp leaves in the Autumn

The scent the earth gives off when beginning to warm up in the Spring

Sewers (odd I know, but the smell, for me, is inextricable linked with Venice)

I love this...
 

Scents....
 

Scents I Like:

• Micah, my cat (I love pressing my face in along his fur and smelling him when he cuddles into my head and pillow at bedtime)
• Shampoos, bodywashes, perfumes and/or colognes, laundry detergents/fabric softeners associated with people I've held and treasure/treasured
• Freshly mown grass
• Baked bread
• Coffee
• Puppy or kitten breath
• A baby's skin (clean)
• Wooded areas (Some may not like the damp, earthy, "dirty" smell, but I adore it-- it smells like the areas I played in a lot as a child)
• The smell of being near a lake, especially when out fishing or camping
• Salt-air / the ocean (I'm terrified of the ocean, but the smell of the air there is wonderous)
• Gasoline being pumped
• Citrus (cleaners, candles, fresh fruit, etc.)
• Lavender (incense, fabric softeners, perfumes, etc.)
• "New Car" scent after the plastic's been removed from the interior
• Damp, morning air and cool evenings
• Popcorn

Scents I Dislike:

• Sulfur (I have olfactory hallucinations where I can smell sulfur but others around me cannot-- it's disturbing)
• Burnt popcorn
• Body odor / poor hygiene
• Baby food (certain kinds make my throat clench-- reminds me of an old, painful memory)
• Public restrooms (Of course!)
• Sandalwood Incense (though it has a "woodsy" smell I normally like, many brands of it give me headaches)

My cats fur

Gardenias

Air after rain

Chai in my mug

Alabama after rain storm

Northern Georgia

"hair of people I care about and hug a lot"

I have a strong dislike for the smell of cantaloup, so much in fact that not only will I not eat it, I cannot sit at the table while someone else eats it. It smells like stinky-wet-haven't-been-washed-in-a-year gym socks. :sock:

What I do love is the smell of fresh roasted coffee beans, preferably over a campfire after dinner.

1. Woodsmoke
2. Leather
3. Coffee
4. Fresh baked bread
5. Bay rum
6. Dragon's Blood
7 The Hoh Rainforest after a heavy rainfall

Fresh cut hay

The laundry aisle

coffee, coffee beans....

the woods after it rains

Herbs

Too many colognes to mention

Same with perfumes

Rain

Snow

The ocean

new tires...literally leaves a bad taste in my mouth. there's a reason for it.

wet peanut butter

mildew

strong bleach...but only when someone else is using it..strangely

a particular local farm's pasture....poor drainage...nasty

Lilies...only since my Memere died.. there were SO many at her funeral...

Tube feeding formula...

Many many others I'm sure....

Pine trees...they don't have to be cut to smell ohhh soooo niceeee mmmmm

Sandalwood

Lemon grass

Wine...of course...

I assume you are inquiring about the socks, it is a long story...it's late...hey don't you have to work tomorrow? ;)

I love the smell of Bay Rum. I buy bay rum scented aftershave that is like the old time barbers used. Love it! Just recently I asked the woman who makes and sells candles at the local co-op to make me a set of candles that are bay rum scented with essential oils. They smell so good!

I so thought Bay Rum was alcohol :| Thank you for clarifying lol

Your aftershave is it by Pinaud? My grampa used to use it and he would buy it from the local barber.

I get my bay rum as an essential oil from a local place here called Tenzing Momo...it's a Chinese Apothecary that carries all kinds of obscure things.

Oooh those candles would ROCK!!


And may I add to the list of my smelly good stuff:

Bayberry candles (the real deal, not those imitation ones)
Silver fir trees
Cedar
Middle Eastern food....it just has a delightful smell...probably from the combination of spices. (Like ras-el-hanout or harissa)

Smelly things?
 

Good smelly things...

Cigars (good ones, not drug store ones).
Blue Cheese.
Clean babies.
Turkey in the oven on Thanksgiving.
A sweaty armpit (yeah...I kinda like this).
Light cologne or aftershave.
Baking bread.
Curry.
Strong coffee, first thing in the morning.
Cut grass in the summertime.
Burning wood in the fall or winter.
Hot apple pie.
Bourbon.

Nope, it is often used as aftershave or a base ingredient in men's colognes.

wet puppy

lover's scent on my skin

fresh donuts

after the rain

wet wool

Sorry, just saw this. No the Bay Rum aftershave I am using atm is another brand that I can't think of right this minute...Gabels or something like that, but I do also use Pinaud Clubman aftershave lotions as well as the talc. It's excellent for an everyday aftershave. I know it's ancient as dirt, but I like it and get good compliments on it. :)

If I am in bed at night and I concentrate, I can smell her skin - the back of her neck ...

i'm ole skool dat-a-way, too...


i also adore orange-patchouli body wash from da eco store...

I miss smelling like horses. The smell that is not quite sweaty, but a little sweet actually. It consumes your clothing as if you were at a smokey campfire. When at my sisters farm she has 5 horses and they all know me. Lovin up on them, and helping take care of them grows on ya. Anyhow, I miss smelling like them, and having my cat try and figure out what/who I have been around!

I love the beautiful heavy and full scent of the gay men's "let's fuck" perfumes. Woof. It actually makes me a bit sexually dizzy when hugged by a butch wearing it cause all it says to me is "sex, on the floor, now"

I'm bakeing.
 

Everyone take a deep smell,I have fresh home made apple pies bakeing in the oven.If I could some how send them over the puter I would gladly share them.

Now that's just cruel ...:seeingstars:

:rofl: I have a fresh pot of decaf coffee ... swap ya a cup for a piece :praying:

hot mint tea, fresh baked bread, clean baby, freshly mowed lawn.


ahhhh, :tea:

Any sort of book store has an amazing aroma and brings me to life. The books themselves touch my nose as well. Making love in a sex of book would be so erotic surrounded by the aroma.

Oh my where to start...
Fresh baked bread. or anything baking.
Lemon verbena ,reminds me of my grannie cause it was the only scent she wore.
Prince Albert pipe tobacco,my gramps smoked it in his pipe.
Bey rum.
Fresh cut hay.
Old Spice after shave,grandpa again.
Waking up before dawn and having a cup of coffee on the porch smelling the fresh new day start.
Horse feed,I know strange..
The scent of roses.
Being out on the river lazing along drag line fishing.
The smells of the forest..
The new car smell.

I love the smell of old, worn leather baseball gloves & old book binding; a slight whiff of gasoline and motor oil, the smell of natural "India Rubber" balls and erasers, new tires and new vinyl dolls. I love the smell of freshly plowed loamy soil, and lilac when it's misty outside--freshly cut hay, and freshly cut watermelon, freshly brewed coffee & strong, warm tea when it's poured over cracked ice. I love the smell of old wood polished with linseed oil, and bow rosin, starched linen in the sun, the smell of Ivory soap on a woman's skin, Jergen's cherry/almond lotion, baby shampoo, and Pinesol when it hits hot water...Wintergreen Lifesavers when someone bites down on one, peeled grapefruit, the scent of Tigerbalm mixed with clean woolen socks. Meh, too many things to mention. Too many scents that literally stop me dead in my tracks & sucker-punch my senses with a wave of feelings that I'm incapable of accurately describing.
