I don't think you should be sniffing gasoline...

You might as well ask whether one likes to sniff sharpies or something.

It's carcinogenic. Not a good idea to go sniffing it, though it does smell nice.

I don't sniff it, but I obviously smell it in petrol stations, and I enjoy that smell.

I like it and also the smell of the stuff they put in gas for cooking and heating. Solvents in general make me think of being back in art school, which was very relaxed for me. It was nice to sit there and stare at a painting for a half hour and then get up and go get a cup of coffee. Graduating was a rude shock.

Odd, first person here who doesn't enjoy the smell probably smells it more than most. That being me. Ugh, I even make sure I don't look in the direction of the gas pump when in fill my tank. One time my dad came home covered in gas and I went outside to get away from it.

decades ago in the stoned age, when i was a little kid, i remember liking the smell of the leaded gas exhaust of pre-emissions-control, pre-catalytic converter cars. it had a nice rich beer and sauerkraut smell to it, that almost made me hungry.

I love it and I smell whenever I get a chance, but I try not to smell it too much, if it weren't for the health thing, I'd probably pump the smell into my house all day.
