Hmmmm... first I had to think of a weird smell. When I worked at a natural gas compressor station there was some jet oil that smelled like fried chicken and vinyl wall paper, at least to me it did... and I like both smells.

Ok, you said WIERD smell, right. First sweat.
When my boyfriend just took a shower, but then does something athletic. NOT once the sweat dries and it HAS to be clean sweat.

The smell of freshly cut hay.
The smell of my laundry after hanging outside drying all day.
The smell of coffee.

I love gasoline smell, but not like, straight from source--think gas station or garage smell.

Though, I knocked myself flat as a kid thinking that if I stuck my nose right up to one the lawnmowers portable (open) gas tank as my dad filled it I would enjoy that smell.....

Actually I know quite a few people who like that smell-my daughter and my sister both like it.

Ok....I know this must be weird because everyone makes fun of me for it. I absolutely LOVE the smell of vitamins! Anytime I have a patient who is getting vitamins, (especially the liquid kind)....I love smelling it! If it's a bottle of vitamins....I'll stick my nose in the jar and just inhale.


Some others are: my boyfriend, outside when someone is grilling, cigars, and rubbing alcohol.

My gear is all boxed up right now. I have to keep it locked away while class is in session, or I'll be 40 when I graduate instead of 35...

my wife caught me venting a tank the other day just to get a wiff of that smell. ;-)

Yes! The nice ones with quality paper- I love to open it, bury my face in it, & inhale.
