Oh yes bread baking in the oven . "Nothing says loving like something in the oven".

Bahahaha

Izod and tinted foster grants

Good thread , lots I can relate to , lots of others come to mind .
Thank you Wabi

Pipe smoke, grandad's half smoked, have chewed cigars.

My grandfather’s pipe, the smell of a freshly fired 20 ga from when I was a kid, and the smell of rain. I also love the smell of a can of coffee when it is first opened.

Biden respond to this thread yet?

It’s likable? Potpourri ??

Rain in the Rockie Mountains. Bacon and fried eggs over a mesquite campfire. The perfurme my wife wore before we married (not made anymore). Puppy breath. Fresh cut grass.

Gusto. Gotta be a trapper to understand that one. Every time I popped the bottle open it smelled like $$ in the bank.

Hunters Specialties Earth Cover Scent Wafers.

I used to wear these on my hunting clothes, and especially for bow hunting. Smelling them reminds me of my younger days in the woods.

Honey suckle , sasafras , cedar standing , fresh cut , or burning . Wood fire , coal , lived in a lot of chicken houses when I was a kid , coal was a welcome smell , soon followed by a good glowing heat .
Fresh cut hay fields . Shotgun smoke , good food , meatloaf , breakfast , coffee.
Creosote, used to love the smell of pumping a saw dust pump through a blackjack pole , nothing like looking out over a valley or hollow first thing in the morning with sun breaking across a frost , fresh cool air flowing through your nose after the climb .
The smell of pines and cedars when setting in those special places that had natural shooting lanes . You can find some dandy spots setting on the ground with pleasant evergreen smells ,
And rancid onion farts , he'll yeah !

Holy shiet ! Fried chicken and fresh cut cantaloupe

I remember wanting to go in the dry cleaners with mom when she went to pick up dad’s clothes and how I always got to go inside with her because I loved the smell. Back when dry cleaners could use the good chemicals, the nastiest ones always smelled best. 😁

I can’t believe no one has mentioned the school handouts fresh off the duplicating machine

Night Blooming Jasmine. There was a place in the middle of central Florida, off SR 532 on the Deseret Ranch we would hog hunt at night, it was loaded with it. I still remember where it is, and go back to this day to just smell it. And a kind of funny one, as a life long trapper, I still have flash backs to my child hood trapping in the 70's every time I open a bottle of Hawbakers Coon lure. It smells exactly the same as 40 + years ago.

I remember the apple shampoo the hair lady washed my hair with as a kid.

And something about those triangle rubber things that you'd slide over your pencils so they wouldn't roll off your desk. That rubber had a distinct smell.

Tobacco barns.

10-4 on that

Those special Saturday mornings when mom would fry up some bologna.
