mah neighbour cooks ever night, as she has 4 children. tonight i b'lieve i smelt home-made tamales. (she's originally from chile)
|
I've always had an odd affinity for the smell of new shower curtain and pool liner plastic.
|
one from your corner of the world, puddin'
lemon-myrtle, or lemon-myrtle & eucalyptus combo! I remember smelling it for the first time and not being able to get enough of it. Incredible! |
The smells I don't like:
A cat-box that needs to be changed! The smell of pot. Its not a nice smell when you smell it on someone on the tube! Nail polish remover. Ketchup that has been sitting on a plate for hours! Coffee. Makes me gag these days! Wish I knew why. The smells I do like: Fresh cut grass. Fresh bread. I'm with Huge-Smile about the smell of new shower curtains. My new perfume. |
I love the smell of sawdust - childhood memory of being at my uncle's farm and a family friend coming over to build things out in the shed.
I love lots of smells, food especially - gardens. Flowers or trees as the breeze blows, etc. I process through my senses so it can be a really wonderful experience. |
Fresh homeade baked bread! Warm and buttery - cozy , inviting :)
|
fresh clean baby skin
puppy slobber tops of my children's heads a lover's skin after loving horse manure cow patties weeds burning rain coming snows salt air Alabama Georgia Colorado ancient castles dungeons (rosemary, they must use it to stop mold?) old books ginger tea fresh herbs |
a couple dat slay me ever' time...
bacon fryin'
garlic & onion sauteein' laundry fresh off da line |
I love the smell of an estuary at low tide.
The way certain oatmeal stout smells when I swallow it. I hate the way a dirty commercial kitchen smells. It is not a good smell. |
Have you ever read the book Perfume by Patrick Suskind? The lead character was a murderer with a very acute sense of smell. It gives some interesting descriptions of olfactory experiences.
I love the smell of sage and cedar and campfires and lilacs and saltwater...I'm very much emotionally tied to olfactory memories that wouldn't make sense so I won't even say. |
the scent of new shoes
The way a sharpie pen smells Opening a new can of play dough Rain Fresh cut grass The way hay smells in the country The spray of a good ocean wave The way rosemary smells after I slightly pinch it between my fingers Night jasmine Roses brought into the house Smell of a garage Sawdust Bacon frying Babies Cedar chests Lavender Race tracks |
Today's good smell: the air just before it rains.
Today's bad smell: skunk weed. |
her smell...

Campfire - I crave most sensations that come along with this image.

|
Likes - Smell of a storm coming in (reminds me of my Dad)
A new box of crayons Roses and Gardenia (Real not fabricated smell) Fresh baked bread Yeast blooming (cause it means yummyness is to follow) Dislikes - Lingering cigarette smoke (when it's fresh I don't mind, but when it's on furniture, clothe, people, etc because they are chronic smokers-not so much.) When The Boy farts in the truck then hops out quickly laughing and closes me in with it. I think I read/heard somewhere once that smell is the biggest memory trigger. I can believe that. |
Laundry just taken in from being out on the line on a summer day :)
|
Love the smell of:
the unadulterated smell of a womans skin the lawn when I'm mowing it cooked bacon puppy breath the scent of a woman on me after sex trees when I'm cutting them down fried chicken open fire on a cold day burning sage cinnamon the ocean good cigar best I can afford whiskey to go with it. Hate the smell of: too much perfume on a woman tires burning stale smell of cigarettes getting sprayed by a skunk |

I like the fragrance of the forest, after a season of rain - the deep earthy scent of evergreens and pine trees (cedar, sequoia, sugar pine, ponderosa).
I like the aroma of bread baking in the oven on a cold winter's day or the way cinnamon infuses the air as it bakes inside a batch of oatmeal cookies or the way apples, baked into pies or streusel, provides a calming affect. Much like herbs, such as: lavender, rosemary, thyme, basil (omg, I do love a fresh bouquet of basil) or the way fields of mint of alfalfa on a warm summers' day can trigger sweet memories of days gone by. I also love scented candles or esscential oils in musk, sandlewood, amber, jasmine (with Y'lang Y'lang) -- even oil of bergamot or eucalyptus or vanilla: scents that create an feeling of ambiance (welcoming and healing). |
