Obvious ones:

- Freshly mown grass

- Bread fresh from the oven

- The Lavender outside my window

Not-so obvious ones:

- Castrol 'R' 2-stroke Oil at the race track

- Cigars at Christmas

- A candle that's been blown out (as opposed to snuffed)

- Orange Blossom in the orchards near Valencia

- My espresso machine in the morning

- A dog drying by the fire

- DF's perfume Smiley: inlove

- Recently fired shotgun cartridges (cordite ftw)


Over to you

- A new car

- Pussy

- Sheets that have been hung out on the clothesline to dry (assuming you don't live on a pig farm)

Fear!

Ok, but really:
-Hay
-the air right after it rains hard
-a new book when you first open it
-a very old book when you first open it after a long time :)
-lilacs
-lilies of the valley
-fresh coffee brewing

Less common:
-clay, also fresh soil
-new playing cards
-marigolds
-good rice, like basmati or jasmine
-apples, freshly cut

Sweaty people wearing clothing washed with Tide detergent

Morning frost

Red Bull breath

Cured Tobacco

Raw Leather on hot day

No.2 Pencils (not sure about those others)

Other than the obvious ones,

Victoria's Secret Love Spell body spray.

Wife wore that a bit when we first started dating... and you know how things are when you first start dating. ;)

Good memories.

Now I smell it on younger girls and get urges...

kelvy reminded me: charcoal pencils...specifically, the smell when it's rubbed on your fingers from lots of blending, hehe.

I know someone is going to fix that, but it's boring and old.

Favorite smells:

Baby powder
Roses
A good steak on the grill
Oranges
Any Victoria Secret's scent
Freshly baked bread

Hate smelling:

Cat litter box
Perfume or cologne applied too liberally (I don't care what brand it is, but if you load it on, I'm going to hate the smell, even if it's Victoria Secret's)
Grass
