Lilac is my favorite smell.

And clean smelling things like bleach, fresh air, rain, lavender, and clean laundry.

I hate the smell of b.o. and mold.

I love the scent of Orange Blossoms in the air!!! So sweet! It's probably my favorite scent on this Earth.  Down here in March and April, if you drive with the windows down and the sunroof open, you can just smell the blossoms when you pass by the orchards.  I will go for drives just to smell that air!  And sometimes I stop and tear some blossoms off a tree when no one is looking and keep it in the truck awhile.
Orange blossom scented sprays, oils and candles, etc, are just nothing like the real thing, I've tried them all. 


I hate cigaretes, the smell of ketchup, and cow manure (who doesn't?). And ditto on the B.O. and mold.  This may sound odd, but I hate the smell of bananas.  Also bread baking in the oven.  I used to drive past the Merita Bread plant in Orlando on the way to work at 6 in the morning, and the mixture of the yeast and car exhaust just made me ill every morning.  So now when people bake bread, I leave.

I like the smell of freshly mowed lawn, I love the smell of Kingsford charcoal briquets burning from a barbeque. the smell of freshly baked cookies, bread, or pie is pretty darn intoxicating. I met a real estate agent who would bake a pie in the oven of a house she was trying to sell, just before she would have the open house. that's just not fair  ::) 


I can't stand the smell of sauerkraut or cauliflower cooking  8-P

I love the smell of Gasoline.  Is that weird?

I also love the smell of Chicken whenever I drive past Mary Brown's Restaurant.  Oh man it makes me want to stop there every time!

I personally like soft scents like vanilla and lavender.

And I love Exclamation Perfume because my mother used to wear it.

I also like the scent of sandal wood and like to think MJ smells like that.

(Prince smells like Women's Armani...he does wear a ladies' perfume. Go ahead, laugh. I did.)  ;D

St Hubert's chicken sauce


From an actual St. Hubert's Restaurant, or in a package/can?

When I was a kid, I loved the smell of their sauce, but now that the restaurants are primarily located in Quebec, I can only relive it through the packaged stuff in the supermarkets.  It's good, but not the same :\'(

^^What's a Garlic Knot^^

I'm sure I'll like it because I LOVE garlic.

My least favorite scent is the scent of rotting potatoes. I always manage to drop at least one in my kitchen that rolls away and then I have to follow my nose until I find it.  :o

But on the flipside, the smell of smothered potatoes is the absolute BOMB!  ;D

Know what else is bad?  In South Korea, some of the public bathrooms don't even have stalls.  And there aren't toilets is some places!  It's a hole in the floor! Well, it's ceramic, but a hole in the ground, nonetheless.  And talk about ewww, smelly. Ok, I just talked myself out of going back for a visit.

You're not just kidding are you? That's so funny-I played tennis in junior high and I always liked that smell too, I had forgotten all about that! And the smell of a new basketball.

Another scent I like is scented markers.  First, there are the permanent ones that are black and are SO strong-you can totally get high off them, then there are the scented ones, like brown smells like root beer, yellow smells like Lemon Pledge, green smells like mint, red smells like cherry..blue is my favorite because it smells like blueberries! I'm the one they always make fun of in team meetings-I never really notice that everyone is watching me smell all the markers...oh yeah, and White Out too!

In an AA meeting:
Hello, my name is Anabel, and I'm a marker sniffer.  :D
