brevity is sometimes the soul of wit!

and it varies from bloke to bloke and on what they eat and drink

hunkermunker · 17/02/2007 21:52

mushroom soup

or could it just be a fungal infection

Ulysees · 18/02/2007 00:16

Dunno my tonsils don't have nostrils

Reckon it'll smell like we do, depending on our food/health etc....

Rose water. It smells of rose water, FGS.

Eurgh. I hate the smell

ludaloo · 18/02/2007 08:04

quadrophenia I was just about to say the same! No idea what the bush is called but it is on our walk to school and I have to hold my breath when we walk past...eewwwww (I feel strangley impelled to investigate the bush and look it up)
Its not a nice smell though.

Catbabymummy · 18/02/2007 08:24

LOL at some of the comments.
Yep, I think semen smells nasty...
BTW, when I was very early pregnant, I couldn't help notice that my wee have a very strong semen smell about it... anyone else, or am I just strange?

daisey · 18/02/2007 15:48

omg i was cleaning my toilet the other day with domestos and thought exactly that-it smells of bleach yuk

LIZS · 18/02/2007 16:28

We found some middle in the garage today - which smelt similar , bleurgh

LIZS · 18/02/2007 16:28

mildew , not middle !

Pann · 18/02/2007 17:05

Deary me!

As the token male on this thread, I am mortally wounded by these comments!!

or..or....maybe I've been lied to about the rose water thing....

Sheraz · 18/02/2007 17:14

Definitelyy Domestos!
And I know the smelly bush you mean, has a really thick smell to it.
The giz cupboard! (wanders off shaking head - only on MN)

Bucketsofdynomite · 18/02/2007 17:21

I don't think it smells like bleach (maybe it changes smell as it dries?) but sorry Pann, ROFL at rosewater. Go toast some brie!

JoAndTheBoys · 18/02/2007 17:31

Yep, bleach!

Catbabydaddy · 18/02/2007 21:18

My semen definitely has a salty tinge to it, both in taste and smell.

If your other half's spunk smells of domestos, take him to the doctor!
