    I like the smell of sizzling onions wafting from the roadside vendors... but i don't like the way the smell stays on the clothing

    I echo liking the smell of snow and woodsmoke.

    Noxzema face cream. Just a light whiff of this stuff reminds me of my great-grandmother who always used it.

    Cinnamon bread. Reminds me of my mom's baked goods. Now I enjoy baking and making the house smell warm and sweet.

    Pine trees. Love the mountains and the trees, but this reminds me of my grandmother.

    Mr. Tater's neck. Smells clean...like soap, aftershave, sometimes his leather motorcycle jacket and just HIM.

    I love the smell of the sun in my tortie cat's fur.

    I love the smell of frying garlic in olive oil and the smell of cooking artichokes.

    I love the smell of burning eastern cedar

    and believe it or not, what makes ME smile is the smell of a skunk.
    We don't have a lot of skunks here in NW washington, so whenever I smell
    a skunk i think of years ago when I lived in Idaho .. or further years ago when I lived in NJ.


    and I LOVE the smell of chocolate! and if someone else is eating it I can smell it.
    It doesn't make me smile though; unless they share it with me.

    Except for the pigeon smell, I love all those too. we have skunk cabbage all over the pacific north west. It smells like skunk too.. ummm

    (Pigeon smell?? makes me think of downtown, litter, and homeless people.. urban pigeons are the only ones I've ever made the acquaintance)

    Cloves, cardamon, cilantro, garlic, fresh basil, pot roast, tomato right from the garden (ooh - I'm getting hungry!)...

    Fresh cut grass, hay, my horses' skin, my tiger cat's nose (I had better like how it smells, since he spends his time touching it to mine, and purrrrrrring!)...

    a branch of applewood in my woodstove, rich hot chocolate...
