Dirt. Not filth, but earth. I love the smell of damp forest humus, digging in the garden. Something about being outdoors... I also like all the smells of plants - sage, pine, wildflowers.
I don't like the smell of dirty sweaty clothes. Very gross to me. I hate doing laundry because of the smell, even if it's very faint. I often run clothes through the wash 2 or 3 times to try to get the smell out.

Well, I do have some fond memories of the smell of octane boost in the exhaust.

My girls necks. I could spend all day just breathing them in.
My mums roasted stuffed capsicums.
Lamb chops - even when I burn them trying to get the caramelised outside, pink inside thing going.
Chesnuts roasting. Pine nuts roasting.
Honey blossom - summer is coming!
The smell of rain on hot tar roads.
The smell of rain full stop.
G+Ts.
That salty man-smell.
I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!

I love the smell of the Mountains in the winter. Your lungs fill up with that crisp cold air and you feel alive. Then you get a wiff of some wood burning in a fireplace. And you know that there is a safe, warm place waiting for you when you get back.
You cant eat soup with chopsticks.
