What are your favourite smells and why?

I love the smell of baking bread, it reminds me of my nanna.
I also love the smell of old photographs and vinyl records.
Freshly cut grass and the smell of the air after it has been raining.

    I love diesel smoke. Reminds me of when I was a kid playing outside on Saturday while my dad was on the tractor.

    When I was a kid I used to stick my nose out of the car window whenever my mum used to go to the garage to top up :smile:

    Rain on pavement. It smells clean and new.

    The ocean. To me, that’s the most peaceful place on earth.

    Lavender, simply because it relaxes me.

    And, in for bacon, because, damn, that smells good, too!


    ETA: puppy breath. I don't know why.

    The scent of people or animals. I've found, everyone and every animal has a unique scent, the two I love most of all are my cat(She smells very sweet) and my boyfriend(who smells very earthy).
