What's yours? This is inspired by the post about the perfume that smells like dirt and grass etc...

I love laundry on the line - especially if we've got corn in rotation at the house. It's extra sweet then!

my favorite smell is fire burning in the fireplace. Mmmmmmmm.

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk to blossom

Alfalfa, horse manure, lily of the valley, gasoline and skunk.



(in regard to the latter two "odors" my dh always asked why I didn't turn out to be a stoner!)

I love the smell of rain, fresh line dried laundry and cinnamon.

I like the fresh smell after a good rain, wood burning in a fireplace, cinnamon, bread baking, stew simmering all day, and yes...gasoline...the smells of spring (newness) and fall (decayed leaves and the richness of the season).

I like the rain too - but a spring rain is best - and I like alfalfa - takes me back to my younger years when I used to work in the hay in the summer I guess!

I have a few - ROSES I just LOVE LVOE ROSES

Baby goats after they are all cleaned and dry - I know that sounds weird

The smell of my Great Pyr's - they almost smell like corn chips.

Last when I take a loaf of fresh baked bread out of the oven. Made one last night and had a very hard time not sitting and eating half the loaf with fresh butter and honey from my friend.

Sage, cedar, sweetgrass, vanilla, Crayola crayons and PlayDoh!

Well, I've had only pythons, but I assume that other snakes smell kind of like them. They smell kind of mildly musky and sweet. A bit earthy, but not bad. Weird thing to like, huh?
