This is the weirdest by far, but.. my dad's bird. He has his own little smell and it is so cute!!! It smells like powder and flowers mixed together. :battar:

EDIT: Actually, I think its his breath.. but I don't care, its cute either way.

EDIT 2: Autumn.

EDIT 3: Winter / Autumn cold-ish air..

I like the smell of my boyfriend...

What? It isn't that weird. I'm sure anyone else who has a long term significant other on this forum could tell you that when you're really close with that person they have a distinctive smell that you recognize. Scientists are even studing how smells are tied in with pheromones, and how who you're attracted to may have more to do with your nose than anything else.

Anyway, he and I trade sweatshirts once a week and I always look forward to when we exchange them because I'll wear it to bed and dream of sleeping wrapped up in his arms...

Limes, I just love to smell them. I like the smell of coffee too, though I don't like the taste..
I used to have this bubblebath that was orange-canteloupe scented, and didn't want to use it because I liked smelling it so much.

Mmhmm... I remember when me and my bf first started going out. I used to looooove the way he smelled.
It wasn't his deodorant or anything.. it was just, him.
I also like the way he smells now. Sorta like a mix between sweat and (now) his deodorant and sometimes if the laundry detergent has a strong smell it'll blend in as well

heh

I agree with both. Rain and cool nights smell absolutely awesome.

I also like the smell of new cars, the leathery smell is awesome. Others include the smell of spicy/sour food... makes my mouth water.

Gag time: My teacher once told us about the funny sense of smell pregnant women get. There was this pregnant women who craved for smell of her husband's sweaty armpit. EWWWW! :evil:

for the record, the "smell" of rain is caused by moss pollen being kicked up by the increased pressure, winds, rain etc.
this can only happen in a clean atmosphere and PROVES irrevicably that the atmosphere is cleaner now than it was ten years ago (when you couldnt smell it in industrialised areas)

Like Jahbal, I like the smell of gasoline. Oh the shame!

Yep. Rain and night. I think the reason I like the scent of rain so much is because it reminds me of Disneyland. It would often rain at night, so we'd go into the park in the morning and smell rain.

Soap from a shop called Lush called 'Snowcake'. Actually, most of their products smell gorgeous.

Awesome, another person that loves limes! ;D

Aside from fresh-but-not-overly-fresh smells, "warming" smells are nice. Vanilla and melting chocolate come to mind.

My toothpaste. (It's vanilla flavored)

Citrus, Vanilla, and Apples. I also love the smell of my Passion Fruit lotion if it counts

Artificial grape, watermelon, and orange, pretty much anything citrus. Also the smell of rain.
