ripe tomato on the vine


new bag of vitamin M

Sauteed onion makes a happy nose.

Cloud 04-22-2007 12:59 AM

:p I thought this was going to be about nose jewelry.

freshnesschronic 04-22-2007 02:28 AM

Where's the porn?
Kidding!

bluecuracao 04-22-2007 05:39 AM

This is not [eye] porn. Jeez!

Chopping fresh basil.

Perry Winkle 04-22-2007 06:59 AM

Yeast bread rising, baking, being eaten.

I am with Grant, a fresh home brewed cup of coffee. That and the smell of a walk in Humidor.

Perry Winkle 04-22-2007 12:00 PM

I was actually referring to this with my "filling the cup" statement. Jay actually says something like, "Dude, I think I just filled the cup", right after this clip cuts off:



I love bacon.

duck_duck 04-22-2007 02:23 PM

Freshly baked bread

bbro 04-23-2007 08:27 AM

Kielbasa that was brought from the butcher shop back home split open and cooking on the grill.
:drool:

richlevy 04-23-2007 03:34 PM

Bringing home hot fast food fries (not necessarily McD's) in the open bag, when they're so hot that steam is rising from the bag.

Soft Pretzels fresh from the oven.

LabRat 04-23-2007 05:27 PM

My homemade apple crisp...



*tummy rumble* geez, now I gotta pick up apples too from the grocery store....

Beestie 04-23-2007 10:45 PM

Oh boy, where to start...

Rain, bamboo incense, pipe smoke, freshly cut grass, ocean breezes, cedar closets, WD40, white wine and cognac. Not necessarily in that order.

Urbane Guerrilla 04-23-2007 11:48 PM

Not necessarily in the top ten, but: the unique banana-oil smell of Hoppe's No. 9 gun cleaning solvent.

It's 105 years old.

lumberjim 04-24-2007 02:14 AM

new shoes. new car has lost it's luster for me, im afraid.

bluecuracao 04-24-2007 02:53 AM

Sudden, spring rain. I heard it start about 30 seconds ago, and stuck my head out the window...ahhh.

Happy Monkey 04-24-2007 11:19 AM

Halloween. Dunno what it is, but Halloween night has a certain late fall, smoky smell for me.

Shawnee123 04-24-2007 11:25 AM

Lilac trees in the spring

Aussie brand hair products :)

freshly mowed grass

(no edibles? Hang on...)

Italian food baking in the oven

Petrichor. Me too. I miss it from my youth spent in a much hotter clime. I dont' get it very often here. There are compensatory pleasures, though.

LabRat 04-24-2007 05:07 PM

I am surprised this has a name, and scientific at that! I am not surprised however that BigV knew what it was.

Also one of my favorite smells.

BigV 04-24-2007 07:15 PM

:)

Shawnee123 04-25-2007 10:46 AM

I didn't know it had a name, either. And, I didn't know it had to do with a hotter climate; I was thinking 'BigV..you live in SEATTLE...you get rain all the time!'

I love rain, it's rainy here today and I think it's great. :)

BigV 04-25-2007 05:31 PM

Sure, but it's rarely hot enough to raise the temperature of the ground or the pavement for the first moments of the rain to cook off the oils and fill the air with that perfume.

wolf 04-25-2007 11:07 PM

That special earthy just after the rain smell.
Woodsmoke
Jasmine

One that I really miss ... getting stuck in traffic in front of the Wonderbread factory at Markley and Main in Norristown. The factory is gone, but I will always remember the smell that helps build strong bodies 12 ways. It was exactly the same smell that you got when you opened the twist-tie on the bag, but warmer and richer and all around you.

Getting stuck in traffic near the Oreo Cookie plant on the Boulevard wasn't quite as good for me, but then I didn't do that quite as regularly. I know other people who really liked driving by Whitman's Chocolates.

Undertoad 04-25-2007 11:37 PM

Hey, that's the intersection where I was involved in a minor traffic accident and got punched out by the other driver so I needed a plastic surgeon to stitch me up.

bluecuracao 04-26-2007 11:17 PM

Ouch :(

Undertoad 04-26-2007 11:33 PM

Six weeks before my wedding, like 15 years ago. I talked about it on the Cellar at the time.

monster 04-27-2007 02:07 AM

beest (the other half) when freshly sweaty :D Sadly, he's usually too hot and desperate for food and a ahower for me to makE the most of it. plus the Kids are still up at that time. One day..... :D

Just use the shower! That way you can smell him going from sweaty to fresh and clean! ;)

LabRat 04-27-2007 11:06 AM

I second that motion!!:thumb:

For me, any man's attractiveness goes up 2 points when he's working out and sweaty.

Our kid (an oops! pill baby) was concieved during a point in my husbands life he went from not working out at all to regularly exercising...knowing he just got done pumping iron, made my heart pump... :heartpump :biggrinlo :hugnkiss:

BigV 04-27-2007 12:58 PM

Driving through the orange orchards in the springtime in SoCal. I'd open all the windows and slow down just to prolong the pleasure. One of the few things I miss about living there.

bbro 04-27-2007 04:44 PM

I also love the smell of Fall. It's when the leaves change color and are just beginning to fall before they start to rot. I remember kicking up new piles of leaves and getting a huge cloud of the scent. One thing I miss about home is that there really isn't a fall down in the south.

nowhereman 05-04-2007 08:18 AM

The smell of burning leaves inthe fall. (I know, I know, global warming, pollution and all that). Just a whiff brings back memories...

elSicomoro 05-04-2007 09:24 AM

Driving by the Anheuser-Busch brewery in South St. Louis...I used to hate the smell of hops, but now I love it.

bluecuracao 05-12-2007 04:41 AM

It's been threatening rain for a couple of days, but nothing so far. Still, there's that amazing, fresh smell outside...pre-Petrichor?? It's almost like fresh-cut grass, but not as intense.

Sundae 05-12-2007 05:54 AM

The dark green smell of stinging nettles - especially strong just after rain.

Urbane Guerrilla 05-21-2007 04:57 AM

Again, not exactly food and drink though it is nasal and pr0n-y -- but some women have the right mix of pheromones that just goes right up your nose and grabs you by the olfactory lobe with both hands and steers you around by your midbrain.

Recently become acquainted with this phenomenon. Love it.

jester 05-21-2007 04:52 PM

armani mania (cologne) yeah baby

BigV 05-21-2007 07:19 PM

lilacs

freshly turned earth

clean babies

bluecuracao 05-29-2007 09:31 PM

A lunchtime stroll past a cheesesteak shop and a waft of grilling onions, then coming up on a pizza shop and the aroma of yeasty dough baking.

rkzenrage 05-30-2007 11:44 AM

Working with cedar. I'm about to start on a new walking stick for a friend.

The Eschaton 05-30-2007 02:34 PM

BigV 05-30-2007 04:12 PM

Nerve zero.

No...cocaine isn't Nose Porn. But it's not really the Opposite of Nose Porn, either. Hmmmm...

bluecuracao 06-15-2007 07:35 PM

I'm completely amazed at how a cool spring breeze can smell so lovely in this town...but it does. I detect cut grass, trees, and just overall...fresh. Maybe ancient brick walls create some sort of filter, somehow.

Nightsong 06-15-2007 10:28 PM

Smell of fresh tanned leather makes me horny!!!

Better than the usual smell of urine and diesel exhaust, at least. Rare thing. 50 degrees in June will do that, sometimes. Think back on this moment in August and September.
