Weird smells/scents that you enjoy
« on: March 7, 2004, 02:57 AM »
Are there any strange scents, smells, or odors that you are oddly attracted to?  I like the way chalk dust smells & the scent of a skunk.

Gasoline, no I don't huff it or anything, when I'm at the Gas station I smell it.

Rain, you all know what I'm talking about, I just love that clean smell.

New Figure smell, everyone here can relate to that smell.

New Computer smell, see above.

New figure smell I love!! - The rain is excellent expecially when your near the ocean while it's raining.  -  New computer smell excellent, but I think everything that is new out of the package just smells really good!

I also love the way candles smell they can sooth the moment and clear your mind, some candles can smell really good.  -  The smell of Bacon and Eggs is great, you gotta love that smell.  And then the good ol' Barbeque smell, in the summer is good.  The list can go on, and on.  I also love the way a theatre smells, you smell all the popcorn, hot dogs,.

Im a fan of flowers. Being near a garden with a nice breeze makes me so happy. Im also a fan of the ocean. I love to spend my time sitting on the beach and breathing in the ocean spray air.

Bar-B-Q in the summer smells so great.

I like the smell of the ocean, but I manage to live 1,500 miles from one.

That smell that you smell when you open figures is the same smell of new cars, its called Plasticizer, it is part of the reason figures get gummy and yellow too ;)

New figure smell. :)

I also like the smell of a freshly cut lawn, and clothes fresh out of the dryer. :P

Most of my favorites have already been pegged above, with the sole exception of rubber cement (glue)...   8)

Also a big fan of:
Gasoline
Sawdust
Rain
and of course - NEW SW figures!

I use to have one of the best Scratch-n-sniff sticker collections around, back when I was in elementary school (WAY back when these things were first invented).  Apple was probably my favorite smell, and the most disgusting one was definitely the skunk!   :-X  Sorry FG, but that $h!t's nasty as hell - whether its the real thing, or just a sticker!   :P

Fresh morning rain, baked bread & cinnamon buns. Also I noticed a very strange smell opening the silver bags of the Kubricks.  8)
