Dead fish and shrimp. Reminds me of saltwater fishing with my parents growing up.

Love the smell of the bay/wetlands of the Jersey shore. As soon as I can smell them, I know I'm almost at my destination.

Love the smell of coffee

Love the smell of a baby

Here's a weird one - compounds containing cyanide. I'm a professional chemist. Not everyone can smell it but I can, and I've always liked the smell (in small quantities, in non-harmful compounds of course).

Also gasoline, and I really like the smell of the peach flavored Fanta they sell in the fountain soft drinks at Wawa (a gas station).

Yes, one of the reasons why I miss the Pacific so much. My father used to pump shrimp for saltwater fishing

Freshly lit cigarettes. Not the old, stale cigarette smell that gets into clothing and walls mind you. But a freshly lit cigarette? And no I do not even smoke lol.

Lots of gas huffers on this board!

Love the smell of Super Sculpey.
I kinda like the smell of moth balls.
Remember 70's-80's electronics had a certain smell? I miss that.
Durham's Water Putty smells edible.

Me too! But only outside

I'm not sure if it is real or imagined but there is something about snow on the ground that makes things smell different to me. Being in the woods after a snow, being outside next to a fire pit in the snow, a moving river in the winter.

Chalk. There was an old classroom on my campus I’d get to teach in sometimes that still had a chalk board and I’d always be sniffing it.

Old books and gasoline
Stillwater NJ in warmer months

I did smoke (socially) in my early 20’s before I had my girls (that was 24 years ago)

The smell of books and magazines.

Agreed, both old and new, unless they're terribly musty.
