    Freshly cut grass when it's cut by somebody else.

    The gorse bush when flowering.

    The salty air of a Donegal beach.

    Freshly baked bread.

    The outdoors, when you get as far away from other humans as possible. I love the smell of trees and flowers. Even excrement from omnivore animals smells better than human produced smells like exhaust fumes, alcohol and tobacco.

    I love the smell off of my clothes after I've been outside. It's a smell that no washing powder will ever be able to reproduce.

    Mala - not sure if that's how you spell it but the stuff you used in school.

    The smell of rain

    The smell when you wake up camping

    Coca butter

    Oh and the smell of girls hair, it depends on what shampoo they use (and when :) )

    Ye can't beat the smell of someone making coffee and at the same time lighting up a big fat J.
    That smell of coffee and maryj combined makes me weak at the knees.
    The kind of aroma you get when you step outside Schiphol airport :)

    Clean clothes is a good one. I was given a Yankee Candle once and it was called Fresh Linen or something like that. It was a gorgeous smell. Must get another one of those. Whenever I had it lit, people would comment on it.

    The smell of a chicken roasting in the oven is another personal fave of mine. :)

    I like the smell of Halloween, if that makes any sense to anyone.

    Interesting one that, I know what your talking about but impossible to explain.

    My own favs, new car smell, very strong weed, fresh laid tar, bacon on the pan
