Probably the weirdest smell I like is original Palmolive :) My mom used to do “manicures” with me as a little girl — mostly I spent a lot of time holding my fingernails in a bowl of warm water with Palmolive, then later she’d put tons of Keri lotion on my hands and then a little of clear nail polish on my nails. So I love that smell of green Palmolive, reminds me of special mom-daughter times. :)
Which wouldn’t relate to tools very much, but I sure like tools!
Krista says
Channel Me! I love the smell of melting butter, maybe with a bit of garlic too…

kari @ Human, MD says
Channel Me! My favorite (or at least one of my favorite…) smellls is that of homemade checx mix being baked in the oven. When I was a kid, my mom almost never made it except for Thanksgiving break when we’d drive to Illinois and need some major car snacks. So the smell always reminds me of thanksgiving and family and happiness. Now, sometimes I made it at home for no reason other than I like the smell and it is DELICIOUS.

My favorite scent is a cologne that my now husband wore when we first started dating. He is from Russia, and unfortunately for me, that cologne was bought in Russia, and I have been unable to find it here. So sad!

You know the main smell that hits you when you get to the candle section of IKEA? I forget the actual name, I think it’s mango something. I don’t use candles for anything, but I’m always tempted to get one.
