Weird Smells We Love.....

[Apple Tree Crafts]

...I'm sure I'm a junkie or somesuch.

I love the smells of petrol, permanent markers, Evo-Stick (I blame my Dad for that one), turpentine and white spirit. Oh, and firelighters. And fresh tar....

What about you?

Germolene! I used to love smelling that when I was likkle.

I also like the old-fashioned smell of creosote - mmmm, reminds me of my Grandad's shed.

I always have to stop and smell my neighbours' lilac shrub (I nearly typed "lilac bush" but thought that would be mis-interpreted!!!) when it's in flower, and I've got a variety of orange-blossom in my garden that's currently out and it smells like bubble-gum!

What about matches after you have just blown them out, or cigar smoke, which is really weird as i hate the smell of cigarette smoke. My dad always used to have a cigar on christmas morning only, so it probably brings back memories.

My favourite smell is dettol. I love the fresh clean smell.

.......those mock orange blossoms are out now, they smell gorgeous, and the lilacs.....

Creosote...yummy. That's my kind of smell. I am a junkie..I swear.

Pipe tobacco reminds me of my Granda, as does fresh pine. He lived on the Kyle of Sutherland right on the edge of Forestry Commission land in a wooden cabin he built himself.

I hate those big blousy pink & white lilies (stargazers). We had them in my Nan's room when she was dying. Horrible memories and they stink.

What other smells?

New leather, new car smell, spent matches, candles just blown out, fresh linen, and fresh cut grass.

They're my favourites.

I love the smell of your own baby's head. I used to cuddle Eden and smell her!

[swirlyarts]

Creosote - reminds me of summer, washing fresh off the line has a fantastic smell and Gillette men's deodorant - yum!

[Tip Top]

Spent matches also for me :D
Freshly washed clothes that have been on the washing line
The chippy
Jasmine
Kuros (oh yes that 90's aftershave but it just does something to me!!!! ;))
Root beer (and its a total shame that I cannot get it in McD's any more - I was devastated when they stopped selling it!) :nopity:

ME TOO!!!! I think I loved it so much because it tasted like the smell of Germolene, which as I've already said is one of my favourite smells. Must have been a small number of people who liked it for them to stop doing it!

I never thought I'd hear someone agree with me about Root Beer!!!!!!!!!
I used to get the most weirdest looks when I bought it - from staff and customers!!

Tesco used to do a version in 2litre bottle around the time it departed from McD but then that disappeared......

I think only solution is to go to America and ship it back by the gallon
heheheh :D
