I probably shouldn't, and it's a little peculiar, but I've grown to like the smell of ............

For me, it's:

1.) Eco-Max Digital inks.
2.) 3M Super 77


Edit: This is shop related...no comments about your girl/guyfriends! And P-L-E-A-S-E....any mention of OP's speedo gets you a one way ticket to the looney farm.

Not really shop related... but...

My alltime favorite smell is....

the airport early in the morning before going flying.... the sweet combination of cropduster chemicals, fuel, oil, airplanes and anticipation all mixed together in an exhilirating aroma....

You realize Dave Draper that that is why men like women in leather- they smell like a new truck! [Rolling On The Floor] Ahhh sometimes I crack myself up!


Anyway.... I digress.... I like the smell of vanilla. And lemon, I like that too.

For the smell only:

Magnesium sulphate (if I'm right in thinking it's the ointment that draws splinters).
Genuine turpentine.
The fumes from the local metal foundry.

For the associations:

Castrol R
Nitro
The smell of a fast running weir (I'm told it's the smell of the healthy bacteria that cleanse and purify the water but to me it means 'Barbel' and all that implies).

Welding! It's crazy, but at the firetruck place I work at, there's this distinct smell of fresh air where they weld. I don't get it but I'm always sniffing and wondering where exactly it's coming from. Someone told me it was the welding areas. So be it! It's probably the activation of the fresh air thing in the ceiling for all I know.

Plus rapid tac. Sure draws hungry guys in like flies... always asking did I bring some cookies along with me for sale too.

And it's sort of work related, but there is NOTHING quite like the smell of the drive through window at a Tim Horton's. If I didn't want coffee at the time, I do right then!

Not work related, I'm so with Gerald. Hay and dairyfarms, plus freshly cut grass.
