Just thought I would start an informal discussion about the smells that you love and the smells you hate.
I hate the following smells:
Cigarette smoke - I have to hold my breath when walking past a smoker, or walk in the opposite direction.
Hand cream - hate the strong smelling one that some people apply in my company. I say nothing because I don't like conflict, but it makes me gag, and so I have to hold my breath.
Strong perfume and deoderant
Car exhaust fumes
Food smells in confined spaces, like the smell of other peoples' fish and chips when I am on the train
Seaweed
Bonfire smoke
Smells I love:
Tea
Pastries
Fresh bread
The countryside
Sheep and cattle smells
For me; I hate the smell of kitchen roll and toilet roll (yes, they do have a smell people), tea (contrary to you), there's also a very odd smell when cups & plates have been washed, I can't put my finger on what it is but it makes me gag, petrol I hate, always have to shut the door if I'm with one of my parents filling the car.
I like the smell of washed clothes straight out of the machine, aftershave, sponges when they've had gel on them, plus a few more, but that'll do.
