I’ll start with the fact that I kind of like the smell of gasoline, and also bleach for some reason.

    Dislike lavender. I once passed through a town that produces a lot of lavender, has a festival for it and everything. It was so awful. Lovely area, though.

    That is not nearly unpopular.

    For me, pure Isopropyl alcohol (as in not part of some product). Reminds me of doctor’s office when I was a kid, and I like it.

    The smell of diesel and 2stroke mix are nostalgic for me.

    Also I love the smell of vinegar.

    I love the smell of bleach.

    Absolutely hate the stench of coffee. About the only thing worse is coffee with vanilla in it. Disgusting.

    New car smell, it’s awful. Sort of stale plastic if I were to describe it.

    Amplified by long trips on bad roads as kid. Guaranteed to make you feel like vomiting on some sections. Now when I anticipate/pack for a trip I tend to smell that again even though I’m not even in a car.

    I like the smell of moldy houses. I’ve been told it’s a health hazard, so I don’t engage or encourage it, but when people excuse the smell in their residence, I tell them I like it.

    I love the smell of wood burning/camp fire smell. There’s something I find comforting about it. I’ve yet to find a candle that exactly replicates the smell, but if I ever do, I’m buying 50.

      Theres a tea called lapsang souchong. Its a smoked black tea.

      I tell people its campfire tea. God damn it smells good. Better than any candle ever will be.

      Edit: if you don’t really want to drink it you could also just use it as potpourri with it and get that wonderful campfire smell

    I’m not a fan of the “new car smell”, for some reason. The “new computer smell”, on the other hand, is a rare treat.
