    Your Favorite Scents/Smells

    New baby. And they're all different.

    Puppy breath. Sorry, beat you to it. This is actually number one, but on day #2, I can't list it that way. Think of this as "I liked E.T. better but voted for Gandhi..."

    Summer afternoons after the rain.

    Just about anything cooking on the grill
    Burning leaves
    Fresh cut grass

    I had a girlfriend who had a spectacular natural smell - and when she added the right perfume...

    When I was a kid, it was the mixed smell of a newly opened pack of baseball cards and bubble gum. Occasionally, my brain will relaunch that scent out of the blue. Wow.

    Freshly popped popcorn.

    I spent about 20 years in the fragrance business and, at one time, probably the late '80's or early '90's, there was a company that came out with a line of fragrances based upon some of the smells mentioned here. Like freshly cut grass or newly turned earth. It did well at first but I think it's long gone now.

    Golf course in the morning.

    Spring. It isn't one smell but when the weather warms up, the windows open, and everything just tends to smell a little more crisp.

    Popcorn.

    Actually, I like the scent of a fresh cigar. Then someone lights it and that all changes.. Oh well,......

    Same with cigarettes. It's the tonka bean oil.
    And a lot of people like the earthy scent of a freshly plowed field, which is caused by actinomycetes bacteria.

    Forgot my work shirt for my workout yesterday morning, so stopped off at JC Penny afterwards and bought a new PGA Tour branded golf shirt on sale. It had a new shirt smell (must have been that dry fit golf shirt material) and I was smelling it all day. It was aswesome. I even commented to my co-workers how this smell was making my day more enjoyable. Wish I could bottle that up and wear it every day.
