It's been a long ass day and I'm feelin random.

What are the best smells.... in the world :clarkson: for you?

For me:

  1. Coffee beans
  2. Monsoon rains
  3. Sauteeing onions
  4. Brand new dollar bills
  5. Barbeque or roasting meat... yes, even though I'm a vegetarian, I actually like the smell of smoked/cooked meat
  6. Brand new electronics
 
Bacon
New tires
Napalm(only in the morning)
Cinnamon rolls
 
Freshly Baked Bread.
Most of the perfumes I own. (An' I own a shitload of perfumes.) But in particular me fave, Jean Paul Gaultier "Classique."
New Car Smell.
Certain Flowers. Lily of the Valley, Night Scented Stocks, Freesia. I forget.
Old Books.
Just washed clothes.
Cake being baked. Curry being cooked. :)
WD40.
Petrol/Diesel.
Joop! (Leg opening man fragrance. Well it is to me.)

An' for a laugh. Me bloke when he reeks of oil, petrol, sweat an' other car gunk so he smells like he's actually done some work the bum. :lol:
 
Petrol
Frying onions. I don't eat onions but the smell is awesome.
Coffee
Baking bread.
 
2 cycle engine exhaust
gasoline
fresh mowed grass
anything getting baked in the oven
Smuckers Uncrustables factory(yes I've been there.)
anything made by old spice
inside of Apple computer boxes
charcoal grill when cooking stuff
coffee
bacon!
 
Petrol
Fresh cut grass
The smell after rain
frying onions
anything new
 
I second the coffee/bacon/fresh baked bread/pies/baked goods and add:
Diesel exhaust - I actually like the smell, probably because it reminds me of riding in my Dad's tractor-trailer truck and driving our diesel tractors as a boy.

Hickory smoking meat on the grill.

My cat. (Don't be filthy, guys.) She will nuzzle into my neck sometimes and I can smell her fur. Amazing how a creature that never bathes can smell so good.

EDIT: To the above list I would like to add the Chicken Makhani I am about to tuck into.

Everything else is just incidental.
 
I just have to say that Finalgear officially has the most topically diverse forum on the whole internet.
