Anything lemon that isn't edible. Lemon floor cleaner etc.
I must ask here though, I remember a tree/huge tree sized bush in the school playground. It was a sort of evergreen but with fanned out "leaves" that were more like fluffy pineneedles - all I could smell from it was phlegm! I know, such a weird weird thing. Anyone care to shed some light please? |

"The smell after the rain when it was hot and dry for a while in the summer."
Ahhh very evocative smell that, takes me back to cycling down a tarmac lane towards the woods in my village as a kiddie just as a brief shower arrived on an otherwise hot Summers day.. it’s funny how a simple smell can instantly transport your mind back to a time and place many, many years ago! |

"Ohhhh i miss not being able to smell, its been 8 months since having covid and cant smell a thing.
I loved cut grass and sausages on a bbq  "
Oh that’s no good you haven’t got your smell back, I was mortified when I lost mine with covid, I was constantly sniffing hard praying for it to come back, thankfully it did after a couple of weeks, I feel for you  |

Love the smell of freshly cut grass, orange and lemon blossom, jasmine and bread and cakes baking, a strange one though is I used to love the smell of catalogues and magazines but they don’t smell the same these days |

"Freshly baked bread
The smell of my children after a bath, when you give them a cuddle and bury your face in their damp hair  "
just the smell of my kids hair as babies I miss that it fades as they get older |

Not the greatest smell but after taking dog to beach and he has had a good run in the sea...its our smell of a good day out..
Smell of Jasmine on the breeze esp in Greece in a courtyard or restaurant..
And Freesias esp the way different colours have their own distinct scent |

"Aviation Fuel 
Reminds you of holidays ?"
Reminds me of school holidays, taking the bus to the airport and hanging out with friends
Standing at the end of the runway, waiting for the planes to turn onto the runway
When they turned you got a whack of heat off the engines and lungs filled with kerosene fumes
Planes are a llot 'cleaner' these days, so it's not quite the same |

Plus, I don’t think they allow under 18s on the runway anymore. ...unless accompanied by a responsible kerosine loving adult. |

I do miss the subtle but reassuring smell of my dog although there were the few times when it was not that subtle and I knew a good shampoo and wash was in order |

The Golf Course had cut the grass early yesterday before we played so that smell was nice. Then later in the round there was a wood fire burning. That reminds my of my Nan, so that was nice too. |

Babies heads. I need to stop myself from getting the jail when I see a newborn. Just want to wander over and sniff their wee nut. It's like a drug.
Freshly made scones.
The smell from Mr when I nuzzle into his neck. |
