I like the smell of petrol. When I was little, I used to watch my dad pour in the (2 stroke) petrol into the lawn mower, I used to watch it closely just to sniff it while it was goin' in..... Hmmmmmmmmmm maybe that's why I may sound a lil' looney at times....lol
I know someone who likes the smell of new toys or that new plastic smell straight out the wrapper....
Do you like the smell of any weird things other than womans feet/shoes/foot-related stuff?

I like the smell of low tide...The sulfer smell of low tide makes me think of the exposed muck and that makes me think of sinking into it - and that makes me want to

I'm guessing now in adulthood you huff gas for fun and amusement FLZ?
Here's one from way back in school days when I was a kid. The teacher brings fresh printed copies of an exam or other handout straight from the printer and the smell of the ink on the warm paper hits you. Everyone in class is holding the paper to their nose and taking a whiff too...

New toy smell, new book smell [sometimes], new car smell. Yes LeDaemon I remember that too as a kid the fresh smell of printed material your teacher would hand out back in elementary school.

The smell of laundry isn't weird, is it? I also like the smell of petrol. Burning wood is another I kind of enjoy.

I too love the smell of gasoline! Don't know why!
Another weird smell I like - turpentine!
And the smell of the mix they use for women's hair permanents It was the only reason I sat still as a child when my mom would want to curl my hair -- I loved the smell! But I hated the result! LOL

For any of you who have, lil' siblings, kids, nephews/nieces still in elemetry school (referred to 'primary school' in NZ), do you find that the classroom smell is still there of elementry art paint and a mixture of other stuff?
Just to add I also like the smell of freshly dried clothes out the dryer and also like the smell of play-dough.

Because I'm a little older, I recall exactly what you are talking about - how I did love that smell! It was called "mimeograph"; the print was blue, right? The process was entirely different from any copy process use today: Once the original was typed, it had to be retyped on a special form of, for lack of a better term, carbon paper which (long story short) colored blank sheets that were hand cranked through a developing agent (the smell we love). The paper had to dry a little before it was handed out.
I, too, enjoy the smell of freshly dried clothing but there is nothing and I mean NOTHING that beats the scent of line-dried sheets, either for smell or feel. If anybody has the chance to put their sheets outside to dry in the sun and the breeze, I think their slumber will be a different and very pleasant experience.

That is exactly it Toetapper, the mimeograph! How many purplish quizes I had to snort then write on!

Oh my gawrsh Perfect Peds. That smell by far is the most VILE odor in the world to me! Walking by one of those salons in the mall and the smell of chemicals hanging at its entrance always made me gag. Not enough though to keep me from putting a perm in a mullet I had back in 1988 though.
