What are some of your favorite smells?

Of course my #1 would be: ds right after a bath and I have lathered him with lotion, but I also like (and I'm probably in the minority on some of these):

gasoline, matches, Vicks Vapor rub, leaves burning, homemade cookies, garlic cooking, campfire, Downy fabric softener, fresh tomatoes, the air right before a storm, etc.

  • I like sweet smells, like flowers and citrus and vanilla.  Fresh lavendar blossoms are I think my number one, all time favorite.

  • I LOVE the smell of freshly cut grass.  I now it is an issue for lots of people because of allergies, but I swear this is my FAVORITE smell in the world.

    One of my least favorite smells?  The smell of tobacco being processed.  I went to school right around the corner from RJ Reynolds and that smell would waft over to campus every so often.  It made me want to vomit...and I dated a guy who lived on a tobacco farm who loved it and told me it smelled like home to him.  Yeah, there is a reason I didn't stay with him...

  • Gas, crayons, smoke from a chimney or bonfire, sweet potato pie, baby lotion, fresly cut grass, rain, the "Disney smell" (combination of random scents that remind me of working there).
