I like the smell of petrol a lot. The petrol smell comes out when a vehicle is starting. Some likes the smell of kerosine, but I can never like it.

My husband hates the smell of dry fish (salt fish). I like it because it is very tasty, but he hates it and keeps on complaining that it stinks.

What about you? What are the smells you like? hate?

Hi, daliaj. I like the smell of a lot of things. But one thing peculiar I can think of right now is the smell of a candle that has just been put out. It actually reminds me of a birthday cake happy.
I hate the smell of stinking underarm and spoiled food thumbdown
Have a nice day!

really? you like the smell of petrol? I'm the opposite then, my noise just can't stand it, after a few minutes of exposure my nose would run. Allergic Rhinitis. I also hate the smell of cigarette smoke. Smells I like, grass after the rain, smell of lemon, my armpit (seriously!), tomato and basil, and yeah, salted fish.

I like the smell of wet soil when the rain hits the earth for the first time as the smell is serene and soothing. It is one of the best thing that happen in nature. After summer when the rain hits for the first time the smell of the soil along with the whether condition presents the perfect blend of beauty.

I have heard many people saying that they like the smell you have mentioned above, but I don't like it. I have smelled it purposly to see if I like that I found I don't. I am sorry.

I also like the smell of wet soil. And I love the smell of the sea! How about frying bacon or onions, pizza, freshly baked bread?


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2901)   ranked 605 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  9 months ago

I like the smell of freshly baked bread, but I can't stand with the smell of frying onions, especially when it get fried a lot it makes me cough sometimes. What about the smell of kerosine or dry fish (salt fish)?


myLot reputation of 48/100. kranshuman (117)   ranked 2,435 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  9 months ago

I think the likeness and dislikeness varies with a person's surrounding and state of mind. Everyone has a different taste.


Desertwind (26)   ranked 11,547 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  9 months ago

Hi Daliaj. Kerosine= no. Dried fish is not too bad. A dead animal is the worst I think.
Alexandra777, I agree with all those things you mentioned. There's just too many to mention.


myLot reputation of 85/100. alexandra777 (453)   ranked 2,824 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  9 months ago

Yeah, and i forgot to mention the smell of the blossoming rice in the fields that my uncle cultivates. It evokes many of my childhood memories.


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2901)   ranked 605 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  8 months ago

blossoming rice? I never thought that it has a smell.

I like the smell of freshly cut grass, jasmine flower and jasmine scented air freshener, the sea breeze, fried garlic, roasted chicken, grilled fish, freshly brewed coffee, cinnamon, lemongrass and mint herbs, grilled rice cakes wrapped in banana leaves, baked pasta...can't name them all there are just so many but to top my list i like my husband's smell fresh from the shower the best!

I hate the smell of smoke from cigarette and exhaust pipes of vehicles, stinking garbage and sewerage, and strong perfume.

Hi daliaj!


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2901)   ranked 605 out of 19,601 in questions & answers  9 months ago

I like the smell of most of the things you have mentioned especially jasmine.I can't stand with the smell of strong perfume. It evokes puking sensation and headache to me. I had an experience travelling in bus where a woman sat next to me used a stron perfume. I can't explain how I struggled. sad

I also hate the smell of strong perfumes.I causes head ache and puking sensation for me. I also like fruits smells especially lemon and orange. I always choose room freshener in lemon flavor. Do you like all the fruit smells or some of it? What are the furit smells you like?

I like the smell of sulfer when you first light a match. I smoked for a year in my early twenties because of this smell. I don't smoke anymore but I do like to burn candles, so I get that smell whenever I light a candle.

I like the smell of coffee. I like passing by coffee shops when I walk because the smell of coffee wakes me up more than the taste:D I also like the smell of oranges, I think it's really the smell of citrus in general. Unlike you, I don't like the smell of petrol, it makes me feel like I'm choking. I think my body is rejecting the smell because it knows it's bad. Just like how it rejects the smell of cigarette smoke:P
