I was just in the kitchen filling up my hot water bottle and the smell that emanated was so lovely.

I also love the smell of fireworks, spent matches, bonfires, liver, bacon and mince beef cooking (even though I'm a veggie) and new books. What smells do you like?

The cats house, we just pay the mortgage..
I like how my cats smell, the smell of 'clean' Im a clean freak so when Ive just spent 2 hours cleaning I like to sit down with a cup of tea and smell the nice clean smell (oh yes very sad I know lol), I like the way my little brother and sister smell after their baths, petrol, my Jean Paul Gautier perfume that reminds me of my holiday, suncream, coconut (because it smells like suncream), Mark (he smells lovely), clean washing, fruit, the sea, new carpet, and the smell inside my car in the summer when its been sitting in the sun for a while and everything inside is boiling to touch.

I love the smell of hot water bottles!! I wonder if it's a comfort thing from when we were kids?!!


However obscure this may sound, I like the smell of muck spreading!
Only because it reminds me of living in the country!!


I also love the smell of petrol, blown out candles, spent matches, running water and the air after a summer rain fall!


Oh yes, I love the smell of the sea and the sand!!
Just the beach smell really, being a beach bum!!

Movin' on up!
I love walking through the coffee section of the grocery store and I enter a state a Nirvana, in a leather shop.

On occasion, I've been known to follow a man wearing Stetson cologne, down the street
.

Clothes, fresh from the dryer, smell wonderful (the kitties think so, too).

Oh the smell of fresh bread!

I love the smell of:
horses
Pushkin's tummy
the nape of my husband's neck
petrol and spent matches
reminds me of my misspent youth - just kidding!

sauteing onions & garlic
clean sheets
a scent of pine trees caught on the hot dry wind of summer
the vanilla bean I keep in my cupboard but never actually use 'cos it was too expensive!
