Smells you love

I use to love the smell of the pharmacy near where I grew up. Didn't go into it much because that pharmacist was insane. He kept falling out with all the customers

And old books.

I was meeting someone for lunch earlier on Camden Street in Dublin and the usual fruit and veg stalls were out. But today they were also selling fresh Christmas trees

The smell of them as I was walking down the street was amazing!

Walking past someone this morning and they were wearing some familiar perfume that I have not used for a long time. The minute you notice it, it's like it takes you back to a certain time for a second.

Primroses - those that grow wild on the ditches. Love to bring home a little bunch and keep them in a small jar on my desk

summer air by the ocean... mmmmmmmm!

Lillies.

Got a bunch of them for my mums grave today and anytime I smell them I'm reminded of when an ex gave me flowers around the time of her anniversary. He gave me two bunches; one for me and one for her. The memory makes me smile, and a little bit sad. But they are still my favourite flower.

Sweet pea . A bunch freshly cut and in vase is heaven in a vase

orange blossoms, so fresh and sweet!

The smell of a beehive after the sunset of a warm day when there is a honey flow. Bees are inside busy evaporating excess water out of the collected nectar and a hive smells like a thousand sweet flowers.

Ocean air... my daily bread it is. Just a small field away..

Grid. · 07-11-2019 10:19pm

The sweet smell of Autumn.....fallen apples, decaying leaves and burning firewood!

iamwhoiam · 07-11-2019 10:27pm

New baby clothes washed in Fairy baby and Comfort sensitive . Mmmmmm

my girlfriends armpits used to drive me wild, must have been the pheromones or something

My new Yankee Candle "Christmas Cookie". It smells good enough to eat, I haven't lit it yet but it's so yum I think I better have some cookies on standby :pac:

Sage.... when the stuffing has just been made and the aroma of sage drifts through …. epitome of Christmas. Also makes a good antiseptic wash so the aroma of healing

Was out doing some street photography last night. Some of the restaurants passed I had a lovely smell of fried garlic wafting out of then. It was a real comfort smell on a windy, cold night.

I have this one too... it's soooo good! I love the Yankee Candle "Snow In Love"

I also use wax melts from Designer Soy Wax Melts, they smell INCREDIBLE and the company is a small Irish company so win win.

Hyacinths... essence of sheer fragrance

I forced a trio of blue and they started to open on January 7th. our Orthodox Christmas Day. Utter deep fragrant glory.

Echoes and memories from decades ago. A perfume of every Christmas past

Petrol.
I'd wear it as aftershave if it wasn't for the ridiculous safety issues. :pac:

On the subject of smells bringing back memories I used to go to school in Aston, Birmingham. I can still smell the HP sauce factory even today the stench kicked in from about half a mile away, add to this the smell from the Ansells brewery which was about a minutes walk from HP, the competing odours of molasses and hops would cling to your clothes and literally knock you out, it was truly intoxicating

Rashers.

Tinsel. Really unique smell that you don't really get anymore coz people don't really use tinsel these days, but reminds me of Christmas as a kid. The day my mum would bring the decorations out to put up, the smell was really powerful and it meant santy season was starting.
