[QUOTE 1799773, member: 9609"]About 10 years ago there was an in-fashion perfume that I hated the smell of, while on holiday in the Canaries I was in one of the large perfumeries, and while waiting for the wife I tried to identify the smell I loathed, on finding the bottle I gave it a quick squirt and accidentally sprayed it up my nose, I was stuck with that disgusting smell for the rest of my holiday, even my food tasted of it - I think it was called Narcissus?[/quote]

Could have been Chloe Narcisse, the smell reminds me a little of rhubarb.

I loved the smell of a used matchbox... the sand paper side with plenty of sulphur stuff etched in it... not smelt that for years!

The smell of freshly sprayed silage... sorry, it just reminds me of the countryside in the summer, always has done.

The smell from the top of the stairs of almost any meal being cooked. That just reminds me that it's somebody else's turn to cook.

Freshly cut grass
The smell of a winter evening,the woody damp smell.
My neighbours wood burning fire.The smell of that smoke on an evening takes me back years.

The smell of horses, I'd forgotten about that one!

But I also cant leave out;
Tomato plants

Ever since I was a kid, the smell of Tomato Plants have always reminded me of farts. I don't know why, but they do.

The smell just after it has rained (as mentioned earlier)

The smell when you've just blown out candles (birthday candles emit this smell the best)

Fresh coffee in the morning!

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

The smell of Fireworks too

 

[LiteratureGeek]

Yeah! I don't even know what it is that makes the smell but it's awesome.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

Cordite at one point, but I don't know about now

 

[LiteratureGeek]

Apparently for candles it's the wax

 

[Mad Doug Biker]
