What are your favourite smells?

I love the smell of freshly cut wood, wood shavings etc. Roses :rose: Candles when you’ve just blown them out and coffee (I can’t stand the taste but the smell is bliss!)

I know what you mean @Kitty-Cat01, I detest the taste of coffee, but really like the aroma.

Oohh yes! I love that after the rain smell and you can’t beat the clean bedding smell. Not a fan of petrol though sorry!

When I was a kid in the 60s, several members of my family ran what we’d now call corner shops: they sold newspapers, sweets, cigarettes …and tins of pipe tobacco. To this day, the moist, sweet pungency of pipe tobacco makes me feel all calm, safe and cosy.

I love pipe smoke, too. Not something you get a lot of these days!

The woods after it has just rained, smoke from a campfire or wood burner, freshly fired gunpowder, a sleepy dog, the salty sea on my wife after a swim and her used knickers (especially if it’s been a warm day).

Sorry I know the last one might be a bit yuck but you like what you like!

Actual citrus, like lime juice on my fingers after mixing a cocktail

I like coconuts!
They smell like ladies lying in the sun….
And if I had my way
There’d be a coconut for everyone
