Some of my favorites smells
Here are some of my favorite smells that some may think are odd..
The smell of a wet dog
The smell of fresh cut grass
The smell of a walk in humidor(cigars)
The smell of vanilla extract
The smell of leaves burning
The smell of charcoal
The smell of diesel fuel
The smell of a horse barn
the smell of the ocean
the smell of hot leather in an old classic car
the smell of hair dye ( I think I rather got used to that one )
and you have to smell over the smoke, through the stale beer and pretzels to smell this one but it's there, the smell of the energy emmitted by an audience during a live performance.
The smell of bread baking in the oven.
The first smell of woodstoves/chimneys in the fall.
The smell of rosemary in the garden.
My husband would say the smell of sheep/cow manure--reminds him of home!
smell of toast(freshly popped from the toaster) fresh cut grass fresh brewed coffee smell right after it rains chocolate the kitchen when my mom is making strawberry jam steak or burgers sizzling on a bbq the first day of school...the whole place--especially the classroom just has a CLEAN scent.
As George Carlin once pointed out, everyone secretly likes the smell of their own gas.
puppy breath, school soap from the industrial bottles, napalm in the morning, ganja, pizza
The smell of Turkey in the oven. the smell of Sour Dough bread in the toaster. A quality Pizza Parlor. 7-11 stores all smell the same and when I smell that I know it's time for a Slurpee!
I like the smell of a leather shoe store or just the smell of leather garmets. The original Ralph Lauren perfume. The Cologne I wear called Halston Z-14. Old Spice shaving cream.
I also like the smell of bleach in small doses like when I clean out my sink or put a drop or two in my dish soap water.
I love the smell of saw dust (or a wood working shop)I also like the smell of a 100 year old bar.
In no particular order
The smell of the honeysuckle and lilacs in my yard.
...fresh brewing French Roast coffee in the morning.
...leaves in the Fall.
...freshly cut Port Orford Cedar (uniquely sweet smelling)
...Oud essential oil (from the Middle East)
...my wifes neck and hair
...chocolate cake
...freshly peeled oranges
...sandalwood soy candles
...fresh baked bread
...the ocean (not at low tide)
Boot polish, bees wax, honey, pipe tobacco, brewerys on mash day, hot oil weeping from an old rocker box/pushrod tube.
But just the worst is...GEAR OIL!! Barf out! Gag me with a spoon! Gross!
I like a smell that comes from nowhere and you don't know what it is but it reminds you of a memory many years before...I'm not talking about a particular smell ( like hay and it reminds you of a relatives farm) but just a certain smell you can't describe and it makes you think of something from years before that you had forgotten about...know what I mean?.........I also (like many) like the smell of bread baking in the oven......sulfur from a lit match...cloves...garlic...and of course a new record album just opened,cd's have the smell but not as good as the LP.....
