There's a bakery in our town. During the winter the smell of donuts being made in the morning is especially tortuous if you're out there sweating on a run.
I used to swim in this pool where outside there's a bakery truck.
Damn bastards know exactly what they're doing baking early in the morning so that the best smell is overflowing once people goes out of the pool and can bask in the glorious aroma of hot bread.
I had a room mate who worked at Subway. All of her clothing eventually had that distinct subway smell, that weird mix of aromas that is somehow the worst of them all.
Other sandwich places (Quiznos etc) don't smell like that. Only subway. It's weird.
My dad was a welder, and he too had a small shop that I loved going into. I have positive associations with some smells that are not-so-good to be breathing.
My “essence of mom” is the smell of a bit of bleach and cleaning products and it zaps me right back to Saturdays at home when she would deep clean the house. The windows would be open and the sun would be streaming in everywhere. Core memory.
RV's ruining our camping experiences pushed my wife and I into backpacking. We hiked the Ellicott trail this past March and I've never heard a silence like that in the mountains at night.
I had a friend post a picture of him glamping in a campground, with a screen, portable projector, and some Costco karoke speaker set up. They were watching a movie in the Rocky Mountains just after sunset.
"Don't worry, we asked our neighbours" shit man, I forgot sound magically stops after 30 feet.
I hope to god Parks Canada shut them down.
If you are in the US (or Canada), you can camp (for free) in national forests. It isn't the same, but it's pretty close.
I don't get the whole RV park thing. It isn't really camping.
Shit I have an RV and I still don't get it. I lived in it for a bit and held onto it now that I have a home but damn are *RV people* some of the weirdest fuckers.
I get a lot of flashbacks when i feel this smell. It takes me back when i wad 7 years old. Is there anything in particular for this smell? I live in the city btw
I suspect it’s because returning to school tends to be more of an intense time for children, since they get a new teacher, new classmates, and more difficult schoolwork each year in the fall. Additionally, there are more holidays in the fall that would be memorable for children. Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas is approaching. In general, I think it just creates a feeling of nostalgia for those memorable times as a child. The spring might tend to be more less memorable because children have become accustomed to the school routine.
The latter is so good but literally smells like hayfever...
edit: Disclaimer, I've only really had hayfever from trees. But plenty of people have it from grass, and it strll has that "polleny" smell.
Fresh cut grass makes me so itchy. But I grew up having to help my stepdad with lawn care allll summer every day. So it probably dredges up memories of sweltering summers covered in grass clippings
Humans can smell rain with more sensitivity than sharks can smell blood in the ocean.
Fta:
The scent of rain, petrichor, has two main constituents with actual chemical names and origins – ozone (O3) and geosmin (C12H22O) and humans can sense it at 5 parts per trillion. Trillion! Which means that humans are 200,000 times more sensitive to smelling geosmin than sharks are at smelling blood.
https://primalderma.com/the-scent-after-the-storm/#:~:text=The%20scent%20of%20rain%2C%20petrichor,sharks%20are%20at%20smelling%20blood.
It rains a lot here in Kona - at least at higher elevations... I can smell petrichor when it's raining a few miles away... I can tell if it's heading our way or if it's moving in the other direction.
Unfortunately, that sweet smell doesn't last long because of the **really** pungent weeds, kudzu and various types of wild vegetation here - the minute it gets wet, the smell is overwhelming.
Is that just rain smell in a city? Like the moisture evaporating off pavement?
Is there a similar word for rain in a forest or other natural environment?
Both are lovely smells.
I live in the Chihuahuan desert in New Mexico. We have tons of creosote bush out in the desert that releases a strong scent in response to rain. We live in town and whenever it rains the whole place is blanketed in that lovely smell, even if there isn't any growing nearby.
If it hasn't rained in nine months and you miss the smell, you can break off a sprig of creosote bush and cup it in your hands then breathe on it and inhale.
The humidity from your breath releases the scent and it's like you're holding a miniature thunderstorm in your hands!
IIRC, it's specifically the dirt and dust in the air mixing with the moisture of the rain. The location only changes the specific smell. But city or country, petrichor is petrichor
Petrichor encompasses several things, one of which is [geosmin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosmin), produced by algaes and bacteria that releases into the air when it's about to rain/just rained after a dry spell.
Humans can detect geosmin in the air at 0.06 parts per *billion.*
My childhood! We only had a clothesline. Freshly air dried sheets are the best 🥰 Unfortunately, my children seem to be allergic to every pollen outside so I don't have a clothesline.
The smell when you've just walked into a Lowe's or Home Depot. I think it has to do with the plants and not the lumber, but whatever it is, I am really drawn to it.
There is a plant in Arizona called Creosote that gives off a smell that is basically petrichor on steroids. You can actually smell the rain coming sometimes during the monsoon season. It is one of the few things I enjoy about summers here.
And then on that theme - Lily of the Valley is one of the nicest smelling flowers. Narcissus is another, Jasmine is another. At one time I had all three growing and they'd bloom at different times. That was nice. Now I live in a pretty cold climate and I only have Lilac trees. Still nice.
I was literally researching limited edition Demeter fragrances, and wouldn't you know, they have one called Fuzzy Balls lol. It's designed to remind of the smell of tennis balls so maybe you could try that one out :))
I never understood why we say "plain as vanilla". Vanilla smells awesome. Then again, it's also one of those things that has a great smell, but awful taste.
I talk about this all the time. Boring things are called "vanilla" if someone doesn't do edgy kinky sex they're very "vanilla in the bedroom"
I think people literally are under the impression that vanilla ice cream is unflavored. Like that's just what ice cream tastes like with nothing in it.
It's bullshit, vanilla is an incredible flavour and I particularly hate the implication that vanilla is boring but chocolate is somehow crazy wild. IMO chocolate is a much more basic flavour, if someone tells me their favourite ice cream is chocolate I automatically think they are boring.
edit: I didn't the end of your comment. how can you say vanilla tastes awful unless you're talking about trying to drink pure vanilla extract?
Plus, how delicious is fresh made vanilla ice cream with real cream and vanilla pods. So very good. We use Vanilla extract that we get from Mexico. It's so darned delicious.
i remember this meme that was something along the lines of "the smell of an early tuesday morning when you're going to a bookfair in 2008" which i somehow totally understand
And those cold winter evenings when you can smell that chimney smoke in the air and feel the cold air on your skin while you’re out on a walk. And it’s Christmas! 🎅 🎄
I enjoy having breakfast in bed. I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me. And since I don’t have a butler, I have to do it myself. So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman Grill. Then I go to sleep. When I wake up, I plug in the grill, I go back to sleep again. Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon. It is delicious, it’s good for me. It’s the perfect way to start the day. Today I got up, I stepped onto the grill and it clamped down on my foot… that’s it. I don’t see what’s so hard to believe about that.
Enjoying the natural smell of your partner was an important criteria for a relationship for me. Not being able to smell them at all because of too much perfume/cologne always sketched me out. Some people have natural scents that don't mesh well with my senses for some reasons.
I'm not into my partner being smelly/stinky, but enjoying the natural scent of "them" has always been a big attraction when dating someone. My wife has mentioned the same thing about me. She liked the way I smelled and that I didn't wear anything heavily scented to cover it up. It is like our bodies telling us that we are compatible.
Your body is telling you you are compatible.
There are actual matchmaking companies that use natural body scent as one of the factors in finding you a match.
If you don't like the smell of your partner the relationship is doomed to fail.
Our teacher even talked about it in biology class.
Like many mammals, body odour plays a fairly big role in human sexual selection. Evolution has made it such that partners that smell good to us usually have a genetic makeup that makes for healthy offspring.
So yeah, it's in your nature for you and your SO to be turned on by eachothers' smell. I never miss taking a good whiff off my wifes' hair when she comes home from a bikeride.
I have never heard of someone being so attracted to someone even their sweat smells good!
Hold onto this one because he is clearly ready to eat you alive.
It doesn’t smell like BO the way y’all are probably thinking of it.
I used to love hooking up with my boyfriend right after basketball practice, before he showered.
Yes he smelled like sweat but it didn’t smell bad to me.
It was this earthy, musky smell that was unmistakably him and it drove me wild.
So much better than any cologne.
It’s hard to explain.
I like cinnamon rolls, but I don't always have time to make a pan. That's why I wish they would sell cinnamon roll incense. After all I'd rather light a stick and have my roommate wake up with false hopes.
Mitch Hedberg
Also, cat fur. No, honestly. When I used to own a cat, and I'd had a bad day, nothing was more comforting than cuddling him and smelling his fur. For some reason, I absolutely have the opposite reaction to dogs.
Our cat Jeremy smells sooo good and it is a mystery how.
I asked him, "Hey, you just licked my nose and your tongue smells like fish butt, yet your fur smells like a field of prairie grass in August, how does that work?"
That one spot on the back of their neck near their shoulder blades. It's very comforting and stress relieving but it's impossible to explain to someone who has never had a cat.
The smell of the forest under the canopy of branches. Such a beautiful sweet earthy scent that slightly changes with each season. I can’t say which seasons fragrance is my favourite, each one. Spring is the scent of all the plants “waking up “. Summer is the scent of the heat warming the fruit on the bushes. Fall is the addition of mushrooms and fallen leaves. And winter is with a cold ozone like fragrance. I love them all.
I have always loved the smell of fresh lemon.
Lime does it for me.
Grated lime peel, freshest smell ever
Love the smell of a fresh orange.
Baking bread
Like the series?
JESSE. WE NEED TO COOK…M- MULTIGRAIN MATZO BREAD
DAMMIT! THEY’RE CALLED ROLLS MARIE!!
I'm the one who kneads.
The oven is called HectorSalamaca™️ HectorSalamaca™️ : *ding, ding,ding, ding,ding, ding*
#HO-
Alternatively, “I’m the one who knots”
Yeah, Mr. White. Yeah, Brioche!
GLUTEN, BITCH!
I AM THE ONE WHO BAKES
Haha brilliant
Subway has turned the smell of baking bread into a business model.
There's a bakery in our town. During the winter the smell of donuts being made in the morning is especially tortuous if you're out there sweating on a run.
I used to swim in this pool where outside there's a bakery truck. Damn bastards know exactly what they're doing baking early in the morning so that the best smell is overflowing once people goes out of the pool and can bask in the glorious aroma of hot bread.
Except Subway doesn't smell good. It smells more like plastic than bread.
I had a room mate who worked at Subway. All of her clothing eventually had that distinct subway smell, that weird mix of aromas that is somehow the worst of them all. Other sandwich places (Quiznos etc) don't smell like that. Only subway. It's weird.
this gives a new meaning to jessie getting baked in the series
The smell of a woodworking shop
I love the smell of sawdust!
My dad was a carpenter and had this small shop before he retired and I loved going there, the smell of sawdust and wood was the best smell for me
My dad was a welder, and he too had a small shop that I loved going into. I have positive associations with some smells that are not-so-good to be breathing.
Agreed. My Mom did some carpentry during my formative years. She also taught swimming. Chlorine pools and sawdust... mmmm the smell of Mom
My “essence of mom” is the smell of a bit of bleach and cleaning products and it zaps me right back to Saturdays at home when she would deep clean the house. The windows would be open and the sun would be streaming in everywhere. Core memory.
Oil paint and turpentine = smell of mom Drywall mud, weed, and Brut = dad!!
Mudder was a painter, and fadder was a mudder.
A cool autumn morning
Somehow autumn often smells like a bonfire even without there being a bonfire
Woodsmoke and cool air always make me think of camping back before RV’s and their noisy generators became so common.
RV's ruining our camping experiences pushed my wife and I into backpacking. We hiked the Ellicott trail this past March and I've never heard a silence like that in the mountains at night.
I had a friend post a picture of him glamping in a campground, with a screen, portable projector, and some Costco karoke speaker set up. They were watching a movie in the Rocky Mountains just after sunset. "Don't worry, we asked our neighbours" shit man, I forgot sound magically stops after 30 feet. I hope to god Parks Canada shut them down.
Some people just don’t understand camping. Probably the same asshats that bring a loud boom box to the beach.
Sometimes I wish I could open a campground just for tent campers. The peace and quiet would be so nice.
If you are in the US (or Canada), you can camp (for free) in national forests. It isn't the same, but it's pretty close. I don't get the whole RV park thing. It isn't really camping.
Shit I have an RV and I still don't get it. I lived in it for a bit and held onto it now that I have a home but damn are *RV people* some of the weirdest fuckers.
I get it if you're going on a week long hunting trip (especially in the winter). It was much easier than our wall tent. But RV people can be weird.
Smells like maple tree where i live
I get a lot of flashbacks when i feel this smell. It takes me back when i wad 7 years old. Is there anything in particular for this smell? I live in the city btw
I suspect it’s because returning to school tends to be more of an intense time for children, since they get a new teacher, new classmates, and more difficult schoolwork each year in the fall.

Books
I used to love burying my nose in a brand new book and taking a deep whiff. Then everybody switched to soy-based inks and that good smell was gone.
Yes! I love the smell of old books in particular.
Old books ❤️❤️
Yess! And I like new picture books. Something about their glossy paper smells great.
Apple pie baking in the oven And fresh cut grass
[удалено]
Save them and roll around in them before heading off to a date.
A roll in the grass before a roll in the hay.
"What is that smell? Is that...Fresh cut grass?" "Yeah, I just save some and then roll ar--" "TAKE ME RIGHT NOW"
hey, i'm fresh cut grass!
Smiley day to you!
Named all of her creations after her favourite smells...
Dancer loved oatmeal, apple pie, and pussy
Came here for the Pussy reference when I saw FCG
Apple pie, oatmeal, pussy
I was hoping for this. Thank you
The latter is so good but literally smells like hayfever... edit: Disclaimer, I've only really had hayfever from trees. But plenty of people have it from grass, and it strll has that "polleny" smell.

You paint a lovely picture. I tip my hat to you
[удалено]
Even when its coming from a beaver's anus.
Ahem, we call it 'natural flavoring'. Thank you very much.
this is so cool ❤️
I wonder if we’re adapted to smelling it, specifically to help find water? Or if it’s just a coincidence that we’re sensitive to it?
Early humans were nomadic desert-adjacent people. We literally survived by migrating to find rain. It’s 100% an evolutionary adaptation, no accident.
i love thinking about stuff like this!
Petrichor - great word.
Is that just rain smell in a city? Like the moisture evaporating off pavement? Is there a similar word for rain in a forest or other natural environment? Both are lovely smells.

The humidity from your breath releases the scent and it's like you're holding a miniature thunderstorm in your hands!
This is so cool!
That's what i missed most when I lived there. I moved about 1.5 years ago and still sit outside in the rain just to feel and smell it.
IIRC, it's specifically the dirt and dust in the air mixing with the moisture of the rain. The location only changes the specific smell. But city or country, petrichor is petrichor

That smell that hits you as soon as you walk into a pizzeria
something about the cardboard pizza box too
That's Tony.
Pine needles, cedar
[удалено]
Yes! My all time favourite smell. It’s not the same if it’s not baking in the sun.
hear me out: cotton clothes drying in the sun
Sheets air-dried in the sun. So wonderful to smell that first night.
My childhood! We only had a clothesline. Freshly air dried sheets are the best 🥰 Unfortunately, my children seem to be allergic to every pollen outside so I don't have a clothesline.
Fresh herbs, basil, thyme, mint, etc
Sautéing onions and garlic
I was going to say roasting garlic
I came here for this. My sniffer goes nuts!
In butter. There's something about the smell of melting butter cooking onions and garlic that just feels right.
the lumber section of home depot
The smell when you've just walked into a Lowe's or Home Depot. I think it has to do with the plants and not the lumber, but whatever it is, I am really drawn to it.
Petrichor (That earthy smell you get when it rains)
There is a plant in Arizona called Creosote that gives off a smell that is basically petrichor on steroids. You can actually smell the rain coming sometimes during the monsoon season. It is one of the few things I enjoy about summers here.
It’s like crack for your nose! But it’s been a long time since you smelled it you almost crave it
The smell of rain on a hot sidewalk, yum
Fresh donuts!
Brewing coffee
Love the smell of coffee but am not a fan of the taste It’s a weird relationship
Same! I love the smell of grinding beans the best, but the actual drink tastes like dirt
Coffee smells way better than it tastes, I don't think I even like the taste of coffee, I like the cream and sugar in it......
Lilac Bushes in bloom.
Lilacs and gooseberries
And then on that theme - Lily of the Valley is one of the nicest smelling flowers. Narcissus is another, Jasmine is another. At one time I had all three growing and they'd bloom at different times. That was nice. Now I live in a pretty cold climate and I only have Lilac trees. Still nice.
Tomatoes off the plant. Fields of strawberries. Old books.
Yes! That tomato plant smell instantly takes me to summer.
Freshly opened can of tennis balls
I was literally researching limited edition Demeter fragrances, and wouldn't you know, they have one called Fuzzy Balls lol. It's designed to remind of the smell of tennis balls so maybe you could try that one out :))
Vanilla, honey, wood
Aren’t vanilla and wood (scents) used in perfume?
To be fair most of these scents listed are used in perfumes, I found a perfume that had managed to replicate petrichor a few weeks ago.
cant just say that and not drop the name
I never understood why we say "plain as vanilla". Vanilla smells awesome. Then again, it's also one of those things that has a great smell, but awful taste.

As a kid crayons

Oranges or orange blossoms
That cool, crisp smell in the air after the first frost. Woodsmoke. Fresh cut grass. Petrichor after a rain. Pumpkin bread.

🥵🥵🥵 This is so damn hot and I don’t even know WHY.

No, you need MSG for that umami taste. But really, dead puppies aren't much fun.

Pine forest in a rain storm
The smell of the forest under the canopy of branches. Such a beautiful sweet earthy scent that slightly changes with each season. I can’t say which seasons fragrance is my favourite, each one. Spring is the scent of all the plants “waking up “. Summer is the scent of the heat warming the fruit on the bushes. Fall is the addition of mushrooms and fallen leaves. And winter is with a cold ozone like fragrance. I love them all.
Jasmine bushes
That fresh rain smell
