Wow, way to ruin the thread!
- My Crown Royal whisky barbeque sauce on the stove
- A freshly waxed snowboard
- A ski hill as you get off the top of the lift on the first run of a cold morning
- sex
- freshly baked bread
- freshly brewed coffee: the elixir of life
- Perfectly seared rare striploin steak at the first cut
- Disaronno amaretto when you screw off the top

-Smell of new things-anything new!
I've heard that those who love the smell of gasoline, markers, and other chemicals are more probable to fall into drug addiction.

I'd toss in some Natto (fermented soy beans) - smells like icky feet, tastes great though.

Commercial grade floor cleaner.
When I worked in a gas station for a brief while, it made mopping the floor at the end of the day all the more sweet (it has an incredibly sweet smell, thats oh so enticing).

On topic, though, osiris has just given me a headache and made me nauseous just thinking of those smells he likes so much. Seriously, WTF?! Gasoline, sharpies, new car. Bweurk.

It was either that or a Waffle House, I was so drunk because of the cow I was marrying, I can't remember...
Did you see that cow in the video at Waffle House??? :vomit:
And that was near where I grew up in Atlanta.

They do and I'd forgotten about that. They're wonderful.
Hoppe's #9 has been mentioned, but I like LSA better. Also, Ted mentioned "gunsmoke," but there are a lot of different kinds of smells you can get with that; some smoke smells like a dirty litter box. I like the way .22s smell on a fresh fall morning.
I forgot to mention fresh old fashioned cake doughnuts and freshly pressed apple cider. Two great smells (and tastes!) that go great together!

I went out to the car a while ago and a house a few doors down must have been having grilled steak. The smell was wafting across the road.
Instant drool.

Or gasoline on a barbeque. One hundred internet points to the first person that tries it.

Dammit.
I was just going to suggest dousing the baby or puppy in gasoline.

Freshly printed magazine (just the paper, not the obnoxious perfume inserts)
To this day, when I smell that, memories come rushing back of opening Nintendo Power magazines that came in the mail. It made that month-long wait oh-so worth it.

Sunday Editions of newspapers, with all the inserts' different stock smells... I used to love that smell. Now I just have to lug the monster in and pull out the inserts to get to the paper-about 25% of the whole load, by the way, and that includes the classified ads. But I agree that a fresh magazine is great, and a regular newspaper smells good too.
