    One of my usual routes during my walk takes me past the local bakery, and the smell of all of the fresh bread wafting in the air is divine.

    Earlier on the route, in non-lockdown times, I would pass a few restaurants, and that distinctive smell of I think gravy or meat cooking coming from the kitchens makes me salivate.

    The first time you immerse yourself in fresh bed sheets and turn your head to the other side of the pillow. And the first time you put on your favourite hoody after a wash.

    Someone mentioned it earlier, but yeah "petrichor", particularly on your holidays in a warm country when the evening is setting in, is great.

    here's a quirky one....

    ...i detest cigarettes esp when smoked indoors the smell lingers for days

    BUT i have to confess i kinda like the smell of cigarettes outdoors esp in a public park on a summer's day kinda reminds me of my youth i suppose, one of those smells i associate with summer and summer holidays spending time with relatives that smoked

    I have that album on vinyl. I love the smell of petrichor, freshly sawn timber (especially if it's resinous), creosote and oily smells in general!

    The smell of fresh burning Jet A-1 fuel coming from the engines of a Ryanair plane, signifies the start of a nice trip away.

    Some hand sanitizers strike the perfect balance between too little alcohol and too much. TerminB8 hand sanitizer is very pleasant and has a lovely feel to it.

    As I live abroad, the sound of joe duffy liveline coming out of the radio in the kitchen of my parents house. Or even RTE Radio 1 in general. Makes me feel like I am 10 years old and not a care in the world
