Weird Smells

Is there anyone else out there that likes weird smelling things?

Of course, there's the classic smell of gasoline! What is it about the smell of gasoline fumes? I've loved it since I was a kid!

But I also love the smell of new tires!LOL The garage in my office building smells like that and I love going down there to just smell the air!

I KNOW IT'S STRANGE!

Anyone else relate?

(I thought we could use another kooky topic!)

New car
Band Aid sheer strips - the way they used to smell
Bactine
I know this sounds crazy, but I actually like the smell of horse/cow manure. (in its original state - what they spread on the fields is a different story!)

i like the smell of gasoline too, but only if it 's faint...not doused on a house or a person covered in it for example. i love new car smell too...is it true they have airfresheners designed to smell like new car smell? i heard that somewhere.

I'm not sure.. I've never seen any? Maybe in a store that's all about vehicles? That would be so cool! I still have the new car smell in my car even though I've had it for awhile, but I'm scared it will go away !!

They do! If you have a Murray's or a Pep Boys in your area they would have it, but I have seen it at Meijers as well.

Smoke. Not just any smoke, mind you - but, the smoke emitted by steam locomotive that burn coal, not oil.

Some of my fondest childhood memories are riding the Durango and Silverton railroad with my grandparents, who lived in Durango - the smell of the smoke (and the roundhouse, if you are lucky enough to get into)...I guess it's because smell triggers memories.

Most people I know, when the train goes by, try to hold their breath - I fully enjoy it personally.

I love the smell of gasoline. Last night I got some on my hands when I was filling up and I was pretty happy about it.

In high school I took great pride in the smell of my running shoes - I hated running with socks, so my shoes had a good stench going. I felt accomplished that they smelled so bad.
