Most people on the spectrum have certain smells they hate but I thought I'd switch the topic around and ask what smells DO YOU LIKE? For me

1) Lemon juice (I bought anti-bacterial gel in this smell I HATE the ICKY Alcohol stuff!! !)

2) Matches (lighting a candle I love the after smell of the matches)

3) Lots of different foods obviously LOL!

4) Vodka (I WAS cleaning the bathroom with it until dad had a cow LOL!)

-baked bread
-baked potatoes
-freshly mowed grass
-campfires
-a kinda hippy smell on clothes that comes from livin on the road (my uncle and my 2 eldest brothers were travellers about 15 years ago)
-the smell of clothes when someone has been doin car mechanics
(i'm can tolerate natural odour and sweaty smell of guys, probably comes from having 4 brothers lol)
-parma violets (those little purple sweets)
-department store (i was sniffing all the xmas gifts that my children got from other people and my son's teddy smelt of department store... one gift smelt bit of cigarettes where the giver is a smoker and the gift had been in her house long enough to pick up the smell, yuk! that's one smell i dislike when it lingers on you after you leave their house)
-some books (i had a diary when i was young which smelt strongly like parma violets... i never used the diary, i jus liked taking big whiffs of it when i got it out, plus i thought if i exposed the pages to the air too much it would lose the smell)
-varieties of cannabis :lol: :oops:
-the sea
