    Well you should look at the positive side - you can use a portaloo at a festival without wanting to puke.

    Seriously though, I'd hate to lose my sense of smell.
    Does food taste different if you can't smell?

    Depends on person, severity. My taste has hardly changed at all. The only difference I noticed to be honest is that morning taste in your mouth.

    Two childhood smells, that you don't get a lot in Ireland unfortunately.

    The first one is the first few raindrops hitting a hot asphalt road on a summer evening, just before the thunderstorm will really kick off.
    You'd think it's not much of a smell, but I find it really heavy and heady and it gives me a buzzing feeling.

    The second one is dry hay. Sweet and mild and relaxing... beautiful.

    Skunk, and i mean the Animal skunk. In saying that, i can see why they call a particular type of weed skunk. Very very similar.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭splashthecash


    The smell of the hot air that you can push out from a hot water bottle....reminds me of being a young boy going to bed with my he-man duvet

    Fresh sweat on a man


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,219 ✭✭✭woodoo


    I'm amazed people like the smell of petrol.

    I love the smell of frying onions when hungry
    The first freshly cut grass of spring
    The smell of babies hair
    Smell of them yellow hedges when in bloom.
    Smell of a cup of coffee
    Sometimes the smell of a striked match

    Baking

    Roast potatoes

    The sea

    Mountain air

    Fresh cut grass, engine oil and freshly turned soil: This combination is the smell in a field where silage/hay/round bales is being done and it just makes me insanely happy.

    Fresh plaster and timber (usually means there's hottie tradesmen in the vicinity too... whoop!)

    Honeysuckle

    Whins (Gorse for you non-culchies) and on a related note, coconut

    Suncream

    Rain on hot tarmac

    I've had a few boyfriends who smoked, usually hate the smell of smoke off anyone but sometimes the scent of it, beer and sweat- ALL FRESH I MIGHT ADD- just something about that combo of smells means post-pub naughtiness :P

    Fresh laundry
