celery and onions being cooked in butter for stuffing(but I don't care for stuffing).

I cant think of one odd thing I like the smell of .
My husband swears he likes the smell of stuff burning YUCK! When he brings his clothes home from work I make him leave them in the garage . They stink like Beef Jerky

and last but not least the smell of burning Rome

Yes ! Love that smell, also the chlorine small of IASM and POC.

I also love the smell of toddler feet, makes want to nibble on little toes

The smell of a just struck match

The smell of my clothes the next morning after sitting by an evening campfire


Also I love the smell of Isopropyl aclcohol, I used to love walking into a hospital and smelling the alcohol.

I'm chuckling. I have to do an injection of medication every week and the alcohol swab smell makes me gag, so I have to cover my face with a pillow while DH shoots me - not because I'm scared of the shot, I vomit at the smell of isopropyl alcohol.

I noticed a lot of people like the smell of Pine sol, but no one mentioned my favorite.... LESTOIL. I can't stand the smell of pine sol though!

Also, gasoline (just a few whiffs)

Under the "not so strange" category:
cut grass
fresh, line-dried sheets
clean baby washed with Johnson and Johnson.

The smell of new photographs, or the chemicals they use to develop them!

Vienna fingers cookies.....they remind me of my grandfather who died when I was 5.

I love the smell of a child's freshly washed hair. My youngest nephew used to hate it when I did that to him. He used to tell my sister not to wash his hair before they came to visit to me because he didn't want me to smell his hair.

Gasoline and sawdust.

Brand new carpet, freshly sawn wood, leather stores, clean barns, dairy farms, freshly mown grass (although I am hightly alergic, so I don't go there), but my favorite odd smell is the smell of dust burning out of the furnace when it is turned on for the first time in the cold weather. I hate cold weather, but I love that smell. I think the wood smell would be a great Yankee Candle Scent, but I don't know about the rest of them, except they did have fresh cut grass for a while.

 

[luvmarypoppins]

Fresh cut grass
Fruit salad in the summer
Mesquite wood and barbeque from texas
Playdoh, I volunteer in a toddler nursery and my 3 teen ds help me too, so I dont need any excuses, I STILL get to buy playdoh
I forgot those mimeograph sheets. Thanks for reminding me. Now I remember I always held on to the huge pile , took a giant sniff and passed them reallly slowly.
Maja or close to it. A special soap made in spain. I only use it as a sachet in my drawers.

I love the smell of Noxema. I just LOVE it!!!

Also: camp fire, line dried bed sheets, my son after a nap, bath, or playing...he always smells good. I do not mind gasoline smell. Someone said celery/onions cooking...agreed. Also, cooking ground beef. The smell of rain/spring...I can't wait for that! I love the smell of the Polyneisan too. Why is that? It reminds me of being young and going to WDW w/ my family.
