"Matches/candles on a birthday cake. I remember lighting matches as a kid purely to blow them out and inhale that sweet match-y smell."
"There’s a chicken wing restaurant near my house that has a challenge sauce called “black widow”. The owner claims it to be around 500,000 scovilles. A few years back some buddies and I decided to try them, the sauce was a dark molasses color and smelled almost like a BBQ sauce, no hint of the danger that lurked at all. We each grabbed one wing and it went terribly. I don’t know how something so spicy could smell so innocent."
"I was disgusted to find that the wonderful smelling “coffee roaster” near my workplace was actually a pet crematorium."
"Tires….. from bikes or cars. When you enter a shop with bicycles from one end to the other!"
"Pretty bummed no one has said a fresh can of tennis balls"
"Sawed wood"
"Vanilla essence. It tastes like the devil"
"Gasoline.
Also not smell, but lead tastes sweet. People used to use lead lined pots to ferment wine to make it sweeter. Thank God we stopped"
"Play-doh! Smells amazing but tastes like Poseidon’s salty butthole"
"This might be strange, but I had corrective eye surgery (PRK) and they use a laser. The smell of my burning eyeball reminded me of pulled pork cooking. I was disgusted and hungry at the same time. Was an odd feeling."
"Hear me out… wet, brown paper towels"
"Dog paws. The “frito smell” many people attribute to dog paws is from a bacteria on their beans called Pseudomonas and Proteus. Despite knowing it’s bacteria however, I constantly fight the urge to snort my dogs paws like some sort of coke fiend."
"A freshly opened package of cigarettes. Not lit. just opened."
"Paint, specifically house paint.
I love the smell. I know I can’t huff it. But anytime I hear that anyone is painting a room or their house, I volunteer. I just love sitting on the floor in a room that’s been freshly painted, closing my eyes and just inhaling that slightly chemically, slightly creamy aroma."
"A fish and chips shop burnt down as couple blocks from work a few years ago.
The whole neighborhood smelled amazing for days. Just the slight hint of French fries. Nothing overpowering.
It was so awesome.
Until I found out someone was trapped in the fire and died."
"The smell inflatable things give off. i have no idea how to describe it, but it’s… nostalgic? to me"
"I work at a Chemical plant. We make a highly acidic product that is dark blue, viscus, highly corrosive, and smells exactly like Fruit Loops. It is incredibly disturbing."
A freshly opened bag of coffee beans is missing from the list. I still can't stand the taste of brewed coffee, though.
Well, it's better than the pack of cigarettes...
Agreed. #5 I can't stand, the smell of rubber gives me a headache.
Fresh cut grass.
Just smelling yourself doesn't count, little boy...
You mean the salty umami of nasal secreations smell like other secreations also made by the body? Kinda normal. The rest of your post is just garbled nonsense.
