OK, this is weird, but my favorite smell ever is my Method floor and wood cleaner. It has an almond smell: wood


I also love:


-Bread


-My husband's cologne (Calvin Klein Truth)


-My dogs... but only after a shampoo (Hartz Puppy Shampoo)


-That smell that houses get right after they are built


-Whatever laundry products my stepmom uses...I used to love when she washed my clothes.


ETA: I forgot orange trees!

Here's mine:



  • Vanilla--I use Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar (and now their new scent, Fresh Vanilla, too) as the base for all of my other scents/perfumes. I think vanilla adds a warm, sensual scent to any other perfume. Strange, I know.

  • Clean laundry--it reminds me of my grandparents

  • Coffee

  • Christmas, specifically pine trees

  • Coconut (I luuurve John Frieda Beach Blonde Ocean Waves)

  • Jasmine

  • My mom's dog, Lily (see avatar for her fabulous cuteness )

  • My bf--with or without cologne, I just like his smell

  • Azalea- It reminds me of my childhood; we had an azalea bush in the backyard

  • Summer at the beach

  • Snow (even though, I hate snow, I like the smell of a fresh fallen snow and it brings back childhood memories when I would help my grandpa shovel snow and then we'd come inside and eat a big bowl of Irish strew)

  • Bonfires

  • Strawberries

  • Old Spice- It reminds me of my grandpa
