Some Nice Smells

[lupestripe]

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*

Mine are coal tar, Two stroke engine exhaust, Freshly grown skunk bud, Hot engine smells, hydrocarbons and freshly baked sponge buns that I make.

So lots of benzene in there hehe. Is there a common chemical that connects most of those? Perhaps that's what it is.

Freshly grown skunk is okay but a little too pungeant for me really. I agree with you about baked sponge buns though, that was one I'd completely forgotten. The smell of a baking cake has got to be another one of mine.

Have you tried vegetarian bacon? It's more akin to floor tiles than actual food hehe. As for number 4 - I could have easily just said springtime dew - particularly as springtime dew is not crisp - I was getting it confused with frost.

I've never cooked food on petrol before although I suppose it could be used as a heat source. I would have thought it's probably a little too dangerous though.

God number one is tenuous although I was thinking of new car smell specifically. Very tenuous - you're going to have to try better than that :-P

Suntan lotion can smell quite nice but I don't think I've tried the tropical one. How's it any different? Does it protect you in the tropics?
