Coffee in all forms...

my cat,

My husband

the smell of the pavement and the earth when a first rain hits. I wish you could bottle that smell.

roses, green apples and lemon peels... they all seem to remind me of each other.

Thai food especially green coconut curry. the lemongrass and limeleaf in it are magical

bread baking, of course

pumpkin pie and gingerbread...mmm.

old books. it's like you're taking all of the history of a book with one whiff.
the way it smells before, during, and after it rains.
my cat
mangos-mainly because mangos are one of the most awesomest fruits in the world.
luscious red, ripe strawberries bursting with flavor
blood
juicy peaches
computer rooms. in middle school i loved going to computer class just for this reason.
the night time air
apples

my dog smells like fritos as well. eerie.

Those are good smells.

I like:

The smell of rain.
Old or new books.
Freshly baked bread.
Slush puppies.
The smell of diesel.
Gunpowder.
The smell of smog and coal fumes.
Burning wood.
The smell of the sea.

Two things come to mind: the smell of a new book and popcorn. I like to open a new book and smell its pages (though not in public, LOL.)
Gotta love popcorn.
