What is your favorite thing to smell in the summer, or your favorite scent that reminds you of summer? It can be a perfume, a lotion, a smell from outdoors, the smell of a favorite summer foor, whatever. My favorite summer scent is the smell of coconut tanning lotion, that smell just says summer to me. I live to use coconut scented products to lift my spirits in the winter when I am really missing the warm weather, and all summer long as well. My second favorite smell would have to be the smell in the air right before a summer rain. Tell me your favorite summer scents.

I like the smell of the sea, espesially when the wind from it leaves salt on your lips.

Oh I love the smell of the ocean too. I even like that wierd "beach" smell that is left in your hair after spending alot of time around salt water.

My favourite smell is the chlorine smell around the swimming pool. It is very nostalgic. ~Pinks~

The smell of a swimming pool reminds me of family vacation, because we would always stay in a hotel with a pool.

I love the smell of freshly cut grass! It smells so green and wonderful! The rain smells good, too!

Thanks for your response. The smell of grass reminds me of summer but it also remidns me that if I walk through the yard I'll get grass cutting stuck all over my shoes.

honeysuckle - The smell is so sweet and so inviting!
I can't really say which is my favorite scent but I can say this, we have honeysuckle growing in our back yard in the woods and walking back there and getting a wiff of it makes the whole world so sweet!! I want to put a bench back there to sit on and to read some day because it's just so peaceful and quiet and smells so darned good! lol

Hi Nykkee, The only thing that reminds me it's summer once again is the fishy smell of the ocean. But, it's not my favorite. Hey you can come to my country Philippines if you love the smell of coconut. A lot of coconuts around the country. You will enjoy it. See you..

Hey if it's any consolation, in the areas around here in the summer when the tide is down instead of a fishy smell we get to smell the smell of hundreds of years of sewage that out ancestors pumped into the harbour *gag*.
