It’s fascinating how different individuals can react differently to various smells. Some might like the smell, but others find it disgusting. A user asked the forum, “What is a “disgusting” smell that you like?” Here are the top responses.
SMELL OF KICKING THE HEAT IN THE WINTER
“The smell when you first have to kick the heat in the winter.”
BURNING DUST
“Burning dust. It smells toasty warm.”
MECHANIC SHOP
“Mechanic shop smell. I love it.”
ANIMALS
“I work at a facility that houses animals and smells very strongly of those animals. Most people complain about it, but I love it. There’s something comforting about it, but I’ve been working with animals for nearly 20 years, so it’s just a familiarity.
OLD LIBRARIES
“The air conditioner moldy smell that comes together with older libraries. Nostalgic.”
PETROL
“Petrol, for sure.”
GASOLINE
“I love gasoline. I’d get a gasoline-scented candle if I could. Gas prices are very high, but smelling it while fueling up makes it a little better. I have very pleasantly learned that these things exist.”
FISH FOOD FLAKES
“Fish food flakes. I used to keep opening the jar to smell it when I was a little kid.”
FIREWOOD BURNING
“The smell of firewood burning. Some find it suffocating, but I find it strangely nostalgic. So many people have said it’s not a disgusting smell and a popular candle scent, which I am extremely happy about. It’s because a lot of you went camping when you were younger.
But coming from a place where only rich people go camping (because of animals), the only time you ever get firewood burning is when someone uses it to cook. I live in a hostel, and whenever the kitchen uses firewood to cook, everyone shuts the door and complains about the smell. Hence, I assumed people didn’t like it, but I’m happy to see everyone enjoys it so much.”
DOG’S FOOD
“My dog’s pet food smells good but tastes bad.”
HAND SANITIZER
“99.9% hand sanitizer, the kind you get in elementary school, hits harder than any alcohol I’ve drank.”
DOG’S PAWS
“Dog’s paws, they smell like fritos or hot dogs.”
CHLORINE
“The smell of chlorine at a swimming pool is pretty amazing.”
NAIL POLISH
“Everyone seems to like nail polish remover more, but I stand with the nail polish! I love it so much.”
CAR EXHAUST
“Car exhaust, especially from old cars.”
OLD BOOKS
“The inside of old books.”
FIRECRACKERS
“A freshly lit firecracker on the 4th of July.”
