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

i'm gonna try and link everyone of those things to something common, food.
6,5 and 3 are obvious
4 "crisp"
2 can be used to provide fire for cooking foods
1...errm..Car..pet..car..drivethru..food >.>

naa, 'm jus' messing, i have a few fav smells myself, i will have to agree with number 1 but a fairly random one is a type of tropical sun tan lotion.

*weird*

I just discovered today I like the smell of bookshops...

mmm, new books

I agree with all of those.

I also like sap, like pine trees/christmas trees in the woods.

AND bonfire night smells, ie burning wood/burning smells in the cold night air.

AND fresh strawberries in their plastic container which has just a few holes in, now if its in a chiller area like at CostCo... put your nose up to that and sniff... almost makes me orgasm, seriously!

Hmmmm...my opinions of your choices are as follows:

1) Yes its defiantly a nice smell, but not forever.
2) God...why? I hate the smell of petrol fumes. *Coughs!*
3) Lovely, one of my favourites, the supermarkets in the USA don't have bakeries. *Sobs*
4) Natural smells are generally very nice, except for a select few such as methane. XD
5) Hmmm...bacon...
6) Perhaps, not a big fan of fish, change that to fries being made cooked for me. ^^

Regarding 4, did you know that the smell of the earth after it rains has a name? It's called petrichor, and apparently is caused by some sort of oil that gets released from the ground when it rains. :)

Bacon and fish bad I thought?
So is snuffing petrol and benzene. But that's a whole other issue and very chavy

My favourite is how the air smells before it rains.
