Some Nice Smells

Being a wolf I'm quite used to using my olfactory sense. So here is a list of smells that this lil wolf likes:

1) New upholstery and carpet
2) Petrol and benzene
3) Freshly baked bread
4) Crisp springtime dew (or indeed any grass after it has just been raining)
5) Bacon frying
6) Fish being battered in a fish and chip shop

It's also a benzene product isn't it? I'm not too sure about perfumes and aftershaves meself - they have an odour similar to that of a chemical toilet. I find them more offputting if anything (although my boyfriend's aftershave is mrrr).

Phenol is an alcohol made from benzene. My aftershave is alcohol free, so I don't dry my skin out or get hurt if I cut myself :) But it's also scentless too.

What's the point of the aftershave then? Indeed what IS the point of aftershave, is it to neutralise the skin or something.

Phenol is an alcohol yes...hmm an alcohol with a benzene ring attached. So you can drink yourself to death quite literally. Marvellous!
