    I love the smells of clean laundry and rain.  I also love lavender, citrus smells, baked goods, etc.  I also love the smell of my animals but nobody else really does.  I think it's a comfort thing and it reminds me of home.

    I'm from New Mexico, and every fall, the street corners are overrun with chile roasting stands.  New Mexico green chile and New Mexico red chile, roasting in these huge cylindrical roasters over open flame--fills the city with the smell of roasting chile.  Reminds me of home, reminds me of fall, reminds me of delicious food.  I miss it SO MUCH.  They started today, and I'm feeling some pretty hardcore homesickness just thinking about it!

    I think I usually like fresh cut grass by the way but right now I'm having sinus problems so fresh cut grass is making me having sneezing attacks.  So right now it's not my favorite but usually I like it.  My fiance likes the smell of gasoline and fireworks which don't bother me but I don't particularly like those smells.

    I LOVE the rubber smell of new shoes. It is the weirdest thing. I just cannot get enough of that rubbery smell. When I purchase new shoes I take them out of the box and just put my nose in them.......yes..I am that weird.

    I also like the smell of Coco Mademoiselle.

    I love the smells of fall, like cinammon and pumpkin.

    The smell in the air right before and after i rains.

    I LOOOVE the smell of my hubby, I know it sounds creepy lol but I love the way he smells, not his cologne but just his scent.

    I also love his cologne Armani Diamonds....yum!

    I think smell is one of my dominate senses. It stinks sometimes (no pun intended) because occasionaly it spoils my appetite.

    • warm apple cider donuts or cider
    • cinnamon sticks
    • leather
    • lemons
    • bleach
    • floral sents
    • rain
    • library books
    • roses

    Most perfumes/colognes/lotions/air fresheners/etc.and even some natural scents give me headaches, and I have a super sensitive sense of smell. My favorite scent by far is the smell of laundry in the air followed closely by chocolate chip cookies baking.

    My ginormous lilac bush when it blooms.  That means it is officially Spring for me.

    I am super sensitive to smells so there are a lot more scents that I really can't tolerate, but the ones I love are:

    Coconut

    Garlic (garlic breath doesn't even bother me.. weird?)

    Bacon (even though I am vegetarian... you just can't argue with this one)

    Fabric softener

    Campfire (and really anything that smells like being at the lake)

    My SO - even his sweat!

    Thanksgiving, totally.

     

    @mrsmdphd: I really want to go to New Mexico in the fall now!  That sounds incredibly delicious.
