Favorite smells

[Clirkus]

Thank god. I'm not the only one.

I'm sure it's because I love to cook and not because I'm psychotic....

I dunno, it's weird, but I like it. Fresh, like when I'm butchering a deer or something. Fresh and warm.

I will inhale Original Gain laundry soap for hours, also Pinesol: Sparkling Wave. It's the only thing I clean my house with.

Shitty generic cigarettes, and apparently pot.

Ahh childhood.

Fruity smells are always yummy.

I like the smell of really cold nights, when the air's so crisp the temperature doesn't register until your nose is about to fall off. It's hard to explain to people that don't live where the weather can go to minus 20c, everything just smells incredibly fresh and clean and.. empty, like stepping into a void. I don't know, it's great. I hate the smell of fresh cut grass, it's too thick. Books yes <3 Also that wet asphalt smell that happens in cities when it's raining c:

And yeah, that's all, I don't know.

Vanilla and coniferous forests after a heavy rain.

You and I seem to like and dislike the same things.

Lilacs. We have lilacs along the side of the driveway, and a couple in the front yard.

My best friend. She smells of Dove and her typical bodily scent, which might be described as a sort of sweet and sharp musk. --Hey, don't judge. Girls smell nice. (Unless they bathe in perfumes or *don't* bathe.) My ex girlfriend smelled of some sort of fruity shampoo, and something else I couldn't quite put my finger on. It was nice.

Woodsmoke. Especially birch. A bunch of houses in the neighbourhood use wood stoves. It's nice--unless they're burning garbage in there. --Birch wood smoke...It's peculiar. It feels very...Familiar. ...It reminds me of my heritage. Ojibwe. (Funfact; The Shepherd is 50% Ojibwe, 25% Irish, 12.5% Scottish, and 12.5% French.)

The outdoors. It always has different and interesting smells. You can smell all the flowers in the springtime, that difficult-to-describe smell during the rains... ...For me, the summer usually smells like sweat. Hissss. Cannot take the heat. I usually stay inside. Autumn, winter. ...Winter sometimes has this ICKY smell. It reminds me of getting sick.

...And of course, food smells. Allllllll sorts of food smells.

There's a lot more smells I like, but it'd be a pain in the ass to list them all. I'm very big on smells. I remember lots of smells. They remind me of lots of things. *Shrug*. I dunno.

I don't have a very strong sense of smell, but there are some things in particular that resonate with me.

In no particular order:

Cigarettes (marlboros and camels mostly)
Gasoline
Woodsmoke
Freshly baked cookies or brownies
Rain (mostly on concrete)
Books (new and old, but not too old)
Sometimes the woods (mostly in the Autumn)
Freshly showered (Old Spice Swagger body wash and Aussie shampoo)
Batteries
VHS tapes
