What is your Favorite Smell?

The smell of garlic and foods that have a bunch of garlic in it.

And I love the smell of mint chocolate.

I almost forgot one....night blooming jasmine on a warm tropical night. Hmmm, puts my wife in a mood.

I wish I could answer this without being banned or something... It's a 'Girly' smell...a bit funky.. lol

Nah, call me wierd, but my favorite smell is "near rotting fruit." Only coz it reminds me of home.

Be careful what you wish for!

Fresh spring air! I admit the air quality here in Chicago is lousy, but after having the windows closed in my apartment for 6 or 7 months, fresh air is a real treat for the nose!

This is difficult for me to give an opinion about, most smells I like are mainly nostalgic smells, but here are some:

-Fresh baked bread in the evening, I used to live close to a bread bakery which always made their bread for the next morning and you could smell it from very far away.
-Gasoline, Ethanol isn't that good though but I still like it.
-Everything that goes boom with gunpowder, Fireworks and Firearms.
-I love shampoos, esspecially when when the wife comes out of the shower, I love to smell her freshly washed hair.
-New cars
-Fresh MONEY!
-Leather, esspecially jackets.
-Cigars.

hmmmm gotta love the smell of ginger, very herbly and refreshing and next is surely the durian, its an asian fruit that looks like ball with thorns...

off topic but just wanna say i love the mangosteen, its also a fruit. heck i'll open a new thread ...

the cool morning of a Summer day which promises to be really hot...

lying in bed, 1/2 awake...

window open behind mini-blinds, cool air wafting in along with the fragrance of ...

freshly blooming gardenia's.

Pancakes!* More specifically, with tons of maple syrup.

*also known as flapjacks, and griddlecakes, et. al.

Mmmm! Making myself hugry thinking about it!

Coppertone Suntan Lotion!

Hmmm favorite smells..


I'd have to go with Pizza Hut Pizza, Shrimp Scampi, and Nachos.

It's a tie, cedar wood, or a man wearing Drakkoir!

My Mimi (grandmother) grew lavender in her garden and dried it.
She sewed up little pouches to put in your clothing drawers and closets.
As a child I would put on a shirt and it always had a hint of that lavender smell.



Now that she has passed, if I smell lavender, I think of her.


I think I'm gonna cry just thinking about this......................

On a similar note, lilies of the valley...

Ah the smells of summer....

Coppertone suntan lotion, Barbecue grilled foods, fresh cut grass, watermelon.


AAAhhhh! Summer!!

Christmas trees and Pumpkin Pie!

Love the smells of this time of year.

Mmmmm.....
