The smell in the air when farmers and park authorities fertilise the land. Few enjoy it, but few get so annoyed about it as I do. What the hell is it anyway? There are non-smelly fertilisers. Why can't they use those?

Is it poop? They spray sewage on fields around here and it stinks.

A lot of fertilizers are made from sewage. It's a very cheap source of nitrogen.

It smells like it. And apparently sewage is popular with land managers, so it probably is poop, possibly treated so we can't catch diseases off it. Their excuses don't convince me it's necessary. Sounds to me more like it's cheap and easy for them at the expense of everybody else. If they just took the trouble to compost it down first instead of spraying it everywhere, the environment wouldn't smell like a toilet. I suspect there are efficient, relatively un-smelly ways of composting, but I don't think they're interested. And yet we live in a society in which it's widely considered antisocial to fart. What's the difference?

Cleaning products including bleach or floor cleaner really bother me in a negative way.

Axe is a brand of body spray.

Oh i see! I was thinking... axe handles? Axe oil? Axe racks? How many products could there possibly be for axes?

It's all sorts of horrid things with enough scent to light up a nuclear generator.
They make shampoo, body wash, deodorant, and the whole nine yards.
Most of it is marketed for men, but only teens wear it.
Each one comes in about eight eye-watering, pneumonia-inducing scents.
Sometimes a person will use multiple scents / products at once.
When I was around it years ago it could lay me out for a week.

Outside everything default? (Most infected/bacteria ridden bodily liquids/BO/bad breath, anything with sulfuric, nitrogenous, or with ammonia, stale and likely something deadly...)

And anything too overpowering enough for the general population to have an headache over?

I'm not sure.
My sense of smell is the weakest. Weaker than average. I have a nose that's chronically clogged/inflammed.
My upper respiratory system is stupid sensitive -- and it's also why my sense of smell sucks.

If there's smoking, I'd likely be bothered by the particles of the smoke than the smell of nicotine or burning.
And as much as I enjoy petrichor every after raining, the humidity and temperature will bother something.

Axe is a brand of deodorant and grooming products for men. In countries outside the US and Canada it's called Lynx.
I know about the product mainly because of those really stupid commercials where a seeming geeky, socially awkward guy would slap on the stuff and suddenly his confidence and sex appeal were so greatly increased anyone female nearby would go "boom chicka wow wow".
Sheeeah, riiight. :roll:

Axe Phoenix smells nice, it's similar to a discontinued Old Spice scent I liked.

Scented deodorant makes me nauseous. Thank goodness for unscented! (This is really embarrassing, but I...um... didn't wear deodorant for a while in my teens because everything I had tried made me feel sick. :oops: :cry: I'm so ashamed.)

A lot of food smells get to me - steamed vegetables/broccoli, fish, etc.,etc. TBH I don't know what all the food smells that get to me are. I just know that if I have to go in the break room at work around lunch it's going to be rough on me. D:

Cigarette smoke and the smoke of whatever that drug people smoke is... Marijuana? IDK. It smells skunklike. D:

Bleach, and whatever other cleaners are used in the bathroom at work gets me, as well.

My dog's ear medicine.
I seldom use it because it smells worse than his ears.
It's not actually a bad scent but it really bothers me.
I feel like I can't wash it off my hands for days.

I have bad allergies & sinus problems that are aggravated by pollen & grass, strong smells like perfume, & smoke especially from cigarettes & pot. I'm on a few allergy meds that don't help enough & I added a new med about a week ago that will take a while to work if it helps.
