I love the smell or horses and the back of my dogs ears.

I also love the smell of lavender (in plant form) in fact, if ever I go anywhere near lavender I can't stop smelling it.

Ds and I both love the smell of verruca ointment. He recently got one and when I painted it with the gel stuff the smell took me right back to my grotty verruca infested childhood.

Coal Tar Soap, Petrol, Coffee beans being roasted (pass the roasting rooms nearby on on Monday when it's happening) bitumen/tar when the roads are being filled - not that that happens very much right now!
