I love the smell of the woodshop... it is truly intoxicating. Coincidentally, when I have my smoker going, its a very desirable smell that often attracts the neighbors.

Prince Albert in a can....

Memory of smell of grandma's house when you first walked in. Grandpa would be smoking his Prince Albert in his pipe. The click of that old clock. Long ago! Not forgotten.

I like the smell of 2 stroke exhaust not the kind from a quad but from the snowmobiles. for some reason they seem to have different smells to me.

Just my opinion

The only time I seen the smell of paper being popular is when Playboy introduced the Scratch and Sniff Center Fold

I know what you mean, I used to read the braille edition.

Remember...when you lose one sense...the others become more sensitive



Me.... "I love the smell of chopped wood in the Morning " !

I love the smell of my first car...musty, a little gas, a little oil, a little exhaust. I also like the smell of jet exhaust too...in the summer time we leave our windows open here at the office, and when the medivac lands a certain way next door, the smell lurches down here in to my office.

Hey, 00BlueOvalRanger, why do paper companies wrap paper in plastic, like the kind you're buying for your printer from Staples or something? Being in a paper factory and all, wouldn't it make sense just to wrap it in paper? I see some brands in paper, and some in plastic, and it baffles me why, if the paper works, you would go out and buy the plastic. Never got an answer from the Staples Customer Service center (fancy that)

...when i get the paper out though, yes, I do like the smell.

When paper absorbs too much moisture, it does funny things in your printer... like jam!

I'm quite fond of the aroma coming out of the paper mills.
