There are tons of studies being done about how smell can play a HUGE roll in moods and even weight loss! So, I was wondering what are some scents that just give you that, "everything is awesome" feeling.

Mine:
Freshly cut grass/grain
Lightning
*** Fire (I forgot one)

    Sandlewood, amber, myrrh are some of my favorites - I love the deep, spicy, mysterious scents.

    I absolutely cannot stand artifical fruit smells (lemon, orange, cherry, etc.) The REAL deal is fine, but the fake "cleanser-like" smells are icky!
