I’ll start with the fact that I kind of like the smell of gasoline, and also bleach for some reason.

    I remember liking the smell of diesel exhaust as a kid but now, at least here in Japan which may have different emissions, it makes me feel like I can’t breathe.

    Petrichor is fantastic as is the smell of the ocean. Cow manure is super nostalgic to me. I was driving my motorcycle to do some paperwork in the city and smelled them putting it on the fields. An ocean away, but still felt like my childhood home.

    Cilantro/coriander leaf (and whatever thing in my property smells oddly like it when I cut grass/weeds) is like bug spray to me. Can’t stand the smell. A tiny bit in something doesn’t put me off, but it quickly gets unbearable and chemically to me.
