    I used to henna my hair, it smelled great once it had all washed out!

    I bought a new deodorant the other day, it smells the same as one I had years ago....so I guess nostalgic smells are gorgeous :)

    *I didn't sniff deodorant or anything, no matter how odd the above comment might seem! :o

    I'm lucky enough to live close to the Guinness Brewery, and for the last week or two have been getting the lovely burnt-y barley, with a little hops-y yeasty smell from there. Have stopped when walking down the street to get a good snout full :D

    I used to live close to the Guinness as well. I can recognise that smell anywhere in Dublin now, when the wind comes from the west.

    Don't like it though
