Piggybacking on Amber's discussion about smells you love, what are some smells you hate? I mentioned a few smells I don't care for on there, but other than the obvious like rotten eggs, poop etc. I think another really terrible smell is burnt popcorn. What are some smells you dislike or hate?

Perfume, synthetic smells. I'm allergic to them.

I am not really much of a fan of floral scents.

@snowy22315 The only scent I am a fan of is if it's an essential oil. Natural scent I could survive.

Oh dear. Nah I'm not going there or I will be sick. But The other night I employed someone to help me out with a job for a couple of hours All he had to do was lift a motorcycle back wheel off the ground. But he was stinking. I mean rancid Stale piss, BO., dirty clothing Yvonne came out to ask if we wanted coffee and she had to run back into the house 2 hours I put up with that I asked him if he wanted cash or a coffee machine and some coffee He took the coffee machine and a kilo of ground coffee Should have offered him soap and water and some clean clothing

Oh, burnt popcorn is the worst. I also don’t like the smell of tuna.. Fish after awhile, don’t smell good, even if they did originally when they were being cooked. And any kind of smoke gives me a migraine

Any vomit - cat, dog, human - has me gagging.
