I have a bunch of different faves. I really like the smell of:
- onions frying;
- fish and chip shops;
- pizza shops;
- a myriad of different food outlets, let's leave it at that ;
- manly man cologne that my male friends wear;
- brand new electrical appliances - especially iPods.
1) new baby doll smell --very nostalgic
2) vanilla
3) hot asphalt right after it rains (I'm a little odd, I know)
4) fresh cut grass
5) warm, clean laundry
coconut suntan oil, anything with a tropical smell and the ocean. i grew up close to the beach and now live in the middle of nowhere so i like the smells that remind me of it.
Coffee beans.
Freshly washed sheets.
Spearmint (the leaves).
Coconut.
The mountains.
A really good men's cologne on a really good man. Yep, that's a good one, but hard to find.
Babies.
omg i'm not alone?! i have always found the smell of skunk pleasant and never understood why people thought it was so gross. heh.
you may have to live in the pacific northwest to understand this - but I love the smell of outside - the smell of camping! like earthy damp foliage and river... i really can't describe it.
as for food- baking bread! french fries. even though i don't really like mcdonalds their smell makes me crazy and makes me crave other foods.
