Favourite smells

[johnh]

Fried onions

Probably up there in my top 5 of awful pongs.

For me, the single most awful smell in the world is garlic. The taste is even worse.

[Sniffer]

The smell of your new babies head.

How could I forget that beautiful

It's been 20-odd years for me and I don't think I'll ever forget.
Much as I love him I'm not sure I'd want to sniff his head now, mind.

Another pipe tobacco burning sadly becoming a thing of the past.

Wow. Passed a guy with a pipe outside work today, first time in many many years I've seen one being puffed. Had to ask him what tobacco, I guessed Mellow Virginia, I was right (but its changed name now to Special Virginia). My father used to smoke it, old memories.

[Aaron]

Bacon, freshly cut wood, petrol, chlorine, coffee, hot bread, new books / magazines, rain after hot weather (not actually sure what this smell is?)

[Davycc]

New elastic bands
Brasso
Newly washed bed linen
Sounds daft and so rare now but coal smoke outside on a wet night hanging in the street.

A hoppy IPA before i drink it, actually my sense of smell is pretty poor. People say "can you smell that" and I never can unless its Italian food and i can't stand that smell!!!

[Davycc]

Brand new "old" bank notes

[Selby White]

All been said but for me

Bacon (irresistible)
Freshly baked bread (that's the Sarnie sorted)
And agree with Davy and going for fried onions.

Someone mentioned pipes but I'll throw in Cigars and I don't smoke.
