I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but death/blood. They're two separate smells that are both disgusting, but together form a miasma that makes me want to pass out. Blood has that sharp copper metallic scent and death has this sweet almost mildewy scent that you feel as much as smell.
Medical person here (RRT/ Paramedic) There are three 1- GI bleed (from esophageal varices. So it’s at the mouth. 2- Dead, rotting things… from people to dogs to fish/seafood. 3- Intestinal obstructions when the smell of feces is on their breath. That used to be a death sentence; hopefully they can fix ‘em now. When a patient talks to you and you smell it on their breath it’s just…. odd. Smell is coming from the wrong end! That’s enough for now.
Also not to b to graphic but those of us that have been in military combat. The smells are something you never forget. Crispy humans are something of nightmares.
orange citrus spray is the only thing that can cut through Death Smell - used to work at a county shelter and had to go into the freezer occasional, would spray the shit out of the path there and back
Rotten dog teeth. I used to work at an animal shelter and we got lots of little old dogs with heads full of rotting teeth (it's very common in small breeds, even can happen when they're relatively young)
My mom's Silky Terrier had a mouth full of rotten teeth for months and he is obsessed with me and grins whenever I look at him. I have never been so happy to bring an animal in for surgery in my life!
I have a dog that we’ve adopted that never got fed hard food so in turn her teeth went bad and whenever she gets near my face I am on high alert, because she has this lightening fast maneuver where she’ll lick me in the mouth every time. I know she’d lick inside my mouth if I let her. 🤮
My bedroom was next to the family bathroom growing up. My dad has crohn's disease. The smell of his shit and vanilla aerosol spray was the worst smell in the world when I was growing up.
My coworkers lunch, he brings sardines and sauerkraut. He opens and washes the sardines in the kitchen communal sink and makes no effort to wash the juices down, then puts them on top of sauerkraut and cooks it in the microwave until it starts exploding. I have to leave for around 30-45 minutes, absolutely one of the worst things I've ever smelt. I'll take the smell of fresh cow shit spread on miles of fields any day over that monstrosity of a lunch.
He...microwaves fish in the office? Like that is usually used as a phrase to describe how shit a coworker is, not literally. But this guy actually does it. Wow.
good god, it's already reprehensible to heat fish in a communal microwave, but to use sardines, one of the more pungent fishes, on top of sauerkraut? which smells like a mid-July garbage day? I think this co-worker is doing it on purpose, there's no other explanation.
What a fuckin asshole. And I don't care if I come across as a dick, don't bring that shit into the work break room. Last time a guy did that at my work spot he got reemed the fuck out from literally everybody in the building. And we're the easy going type. Some people need to get a reality check sometimes. What a twat
No smell ever bothered me as much as walking into a women’s restroom where the feminine trash bins haven’t been emptied in god knows how long. Truly a messed up smell when that sits out.
Bleeeeeh bringing up the repressed memory of when my sister in law left a nasty used tampon on the floor of the bathroom right in front of the toilet. I had tried to be nice earlier in the evening by offering her a menstrual cup because it would allow her to get busy with bf without the haste of taking in/out a feminine product, plus, no pee string and smelly tampon….but she had the weirdest flex of all; adamant her dried period things don’t smell and blah blah blah…..can confirm. Like her soul, it smelt like infection and death
I was at a podiatrist once and a old couple would come in they both smelled so bad like piss BO never wash their clothes smell. The receptionist sprayed the entire office when they left.
My bf and I came home to check for power after evacuating for Hurricane Ida and his roommate neglected to throw away his 32 pack of chicken that was in the freezer before he left. It turned black and blew up from the gases so much so that when he grabbed it to throw it away, his thumb punctured it and it wheezed at him.
I think you have no idea how Epoisses de Bourgogne cheese smells like if you consider parmesan as stinky (which it is not that bad for me) . I once had dinner with company managers in Paris and they served as fish . God the taste was horrible, so I didn’t know what to do to change the taste in my mouth, I look around on table and found a cheese roll which smelled bad ( I thought it was the rotten fish smell ), so i put it in my mouth and god I was half dead at that moment when I discovered that it was the Epoisses de Bourgogne smell . And the taste was even worse then the fish that I ate and I couldn’t vomit because of managers around so I tried an other cheese next to it which had different texture (it was a Camembert cheese) , it only made things worse. It was all in my mouth (cheese and fish), couldn’t swallow anything. It was like a nightmare for me . I run out to toilet and spit the entire shit out of my mouth. I took breath. Went back to table and drink some coke to change taste . But the smell and taste of that Epoisses and Camembert was in my mouth the entire day
My dog gets a hyper anal gland every time she gets too worked up about something. Disgusting. Followed by the sound of her washing said gland afterward its a true sensory experience.
Specific af, but there is this one coworker whose pee smells awful. Every single time I go to the toilet after she uses it, I gag and have to spray a shit ton of air freshener. Like, it's not even poop, how can it smell so bad?!
When I was 17 I let a homeless girl stay with me for a few days. Every time she used the bathroom it would stink up the whole place. Absolutely awful but she was just a kid and I didn’t want to embarrass her.
If its anything sulfur adjacent its dehydration. Happens pretty often to people tbh, but usually not super strong, just a little tinge of it. Used to happen to me when I drank too much booze and not enough water, I started to notice it.
It’s been 6 months since I first experienced that I still make my partner get the potatoes out due to fear and trauma. Very few smells makes me literally throw up and that was absolutely one.
Went on a safari a few months ago. A pond full of hippos wallowing in stagnant “water” has the kind of smell that sticks to your teeth and curls your stomach.
Mine are strangely specific. When someone has peeled an orange and their hands go near my face. Makes me heave. And when someone has had orange squash in a plastic cup, then washed it (badly) and put water in it afterwards. It always smells faintly of orange squash, like it’s infected the plastic cup. Bleugh. I’m ok with actual oranges though and orange juice. Just old, faintly orangey-smelling things make me chunder. Oh, also dog shit.
I’ve had a fresh durian. The texture is a smooth and creamy like a very decadent banana pudding, with a different flavor. The odor falls somewhere between the stinkiest blue cheese and rotting flesh. It’s an acquired taste, to be sure, but there are many devotees in the East. And train stations with NO DURIAN signs everywhere.
The first time I got the smell of durian was rough. The closest I can describe is ripped warm wet rubbish bags left out in the sun, abit like silage. That's what I thought it was until my friend showed me what it was.
I know exactly what you're talking about. It's the most vile smell in the world and it's inexplicably popular. It also smells like plah-doh and old people
I was a dishwasher in college. Large industrial machines. The odor in that room is awful. A mix of every kind of garbage, every kind of food and soap. The atmosphere is steamy and penetrates.
Spilt coffee. Reminds me of back alleys of Tim Horton's or McDonald's, taking a break from retail or warehouse part-time jobs, waiting too long for the bus in a dirty stop. It's nostalgic in a bad way.
I know I’m not the only one here, but fish that people bring to work to eat for lunch. I have to leave the building, it makes me wretch. That, and when people eat tuna salad, egg salad or salmon salad sandwiches on the bus. Gag.
Thank you!!!! I hate the smell of sneezes. I scrolled down to see if anyone else had mentioned this because I felt like my sister and I were the only ones. I’m glad we are not alone
Wow weird. I always knew that spit smelled weird but now I realize sneezing is bad too. I work in a place that still uses masks. I sneezed like 8 times in one day into my mask. By the end of the day I was like eww wtf
I have smelled some of the worst smells on planet earth (visited plenty of body farms and I worked in a forensic lab) but for some reason, I hate my puppy’s poop. 😂 Can’t stand it
Is it weird that I've never even touched a cigarette let alone any type of drugs, but I still love the smell of weed? When you walk around the city and that smell hits you, it's like: damn, that would probably make food taste good.
I get nauseated at the smell of bacon. Never could stand it, but my family was accommodating and would try to ensure I wouldn't have to smell it whilst they enjoyed it by letting me know ahead of time, or opening a window
Dirty dick. I haven't come across it as much as I did in high school but if I can smell your dick when you're fully clothed it means you need to shower dudes. And yes, it has a precise smell, just like you boys say we have a smell too.
I know I'm in the minority here, but I hate the smell of pot. Marijuana smells absolutely disgusting to me. That alone has kept me from wanting try it.
any axe Cologne. my older brother used it as a shower replacement growing up so it reminds of the over powering axe and BO mixture I endured walking past his room.
I quit a job at target—the only time I’ve straight up walked out without notice—because they kept putting me in that aisle to stock and straighten it, despite my polite complaints/requests.
My family travelled from Ontario to British Columbia to visit my grandfather when I was about 8 years old. We took a route that travelled through the northern states on the way there and through Canada on the way back. It took 2 weeks and the only things I really remember from that trip are seeing mount rushmore, and the smell of Gary, Indiana
Fresh sweat on top of stale sweat coated with cheap body spray. Knew a girl who stunk horrendously of that and she was the kind of person who cried and had tantrums and went tattling to the principal and teachers if you had a different opinion to her or said you didn’t like when she spoke over you and treated you like dirt so you really couldn’t tell her she smelled bad. She used the body spray as deodorant.
A freshly mown lawn. I've never met or heard of anyone else who dislikes it. Most people seem to like it. I think those people must be out of their fucking minds. Either that, or we're not smelling the same thing. Maybe it's one of those things with a genetic component where some people can't smell certain compounds.
I was a garbage man one summer during college. Grass clippings in plastic bags left to ferment in the hot sun is by far the worst smell from that entire experience -- worse than trashcans filled with maggots (a close second) and bags of dog poop (not even close to the first two). The bags are usually sealed, so you don't smell it until the hopper crushes them and pops them open. Then it hits you like a freight train.
Shit. In a confined space. Or as we call it in prison "bronzing up" where a prisoner coats themselves in shit. Eats it, masturbates with it, smears it over the walls and their body. And you just have to go in every day and make sure they're not killing themselves. Every few days crime scene cleaners will clean the cell but not them. When you see people using shit as lube, you never quite come back.
I guess it’s a hate love thing but recently I have been non stop smelling this odd cheese tangy smell. I’m not sure if it’s a COVID thing, where I lost my smell and then for months I had to smell this tangy sweet yet cheesecake smell. It was really not bad at the beginning but the it kept getting tangier. Any strong smelling stuff would make me smell that so I had to really stop in depth smelling foods. It’s somewhat gone now but can still smell it at times
A washrag after 3 or 4 days.
When the waiters use a mildewy rag to wipe down tables in the cafe GROSS
Agree, same smell as clothes you forgot in the washing machine.
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢 oh god. Eww.
Mildewy sponges. Can’t stand it!
Or mildewy towels.
Use scrub daddies instead. You can throw them in the dishwasher when they’re dirty
Along these lines, have you ever ended up with a towel that for some reason didn't get put in the dryer right away?
This is mine. I will not buy sponges, touch one with my bare hands, or exist in an Airbnb without tossing the one that is inevitably left behind.
The way a pre-k or kindergarten class smells. Makes my stomach churn thinking about it
I remember picking up my kid at daycare one time and I had to walk through the room to get her. You could smell a different fart every 6 feet or so
My wife teaches Year 1 in the UK (5 year olds) and she says they all just fart all day long so it stinks.
Oooof it has a certain sweet scent to it. I can smell it now.
There's an underlying smell of wax crayons and something sticky
Mouth smell (bad breath)
Mines is the worse just had a wisdom tooth out. Yuk even the taste makes me gag when I wake up :(
Or tonsil stones
I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but death/blood. They're two separate smells that are both disgusting, but together form a miasma that makes me want to pass out. Blood has that sharp copper metallic scent and death has this sweet almost mildewy scent that you feel as much as smell.

I've found a body before. Decay is just a brutal smell
Ammonia
Add some bleach and now the smell is really killer
Someone else’s hot dog burp
I don’t know why, but this response made me laugh the hardest. Take my upvote, dammit.
Spilled Bong Water somehow smells worse than bong water inside the bong.
We’ll that’s because bongs can only spill on carpet
Rotten dog teeth. I used to work at an animal shelter and we got lots of little old dogs with heads full of rotting teeth (it's very common in small breeds, even can happen when they're relatively young)
My mom's Silky Terrier had a mouth full of rotten teeth for months and he is obsessed with me and grins whenever I look at him. I have never been so happy to bring an animal in for surgery in my life!
duddee my late dog always got ear infections and i had to help my dad clean it the amount of times i almost threw up on both of them from the smell
I have a dog that we’ve adopted that never got fed hard food so in turn her teeth went bad and whenever she gets near my face I am on high alert, because she has this lightening fast maneuver where she’ll lick me in the mouth every time. I know she’d lick inside my mouth if I let her. 🤮
Dads after they destroy the bathroom
Beer and wing shits.
My bedroom was next to the family bathroom growing up. My dad has crohn's disease. The smell of his shit and vanilla aerosol spray was the worst smell in the world when I was growing up.
I am a Dad. When I kill it I like to say as I leave "Toilet can take a punch."
[удалено]
When you step in it and break the seal
The joy of spring.
Never open your mouth when using a weedeater on a lawn frequented by dogs.
Omg i never knew until I accidentally stepped on it. Worst day ever.
Specially when it's raining
My coworkers lunch, he brings sardines and sauerkraut. He opens and washes the sardines in the kitchen communal sink and makes no effort to wash the juices down, then puts them on top of sauerkraut and cooks it in the microwave until it starts exploding.

They do that on purpose. Dude probably gets off knowing he's causing all his coworkers discomfort.
I died just reading this. I would vomit.
I'd have to find a new job. How vile. 🤢
Do you happen to work for the Canadian government in Edmonton?
What a fuckin asshole. And I don't care if I come across as a dick, don't bring that shit into the work break room. Last time a guy did that at my work spot he got reemed the fuck out from literally everybody in the building. And we're the easy going type. Some people need to get a reality check sometimes. What a twat
Sardines and sauerkraut? She sounds like Charle Day having milk steak, boiled over hard.
Ugh, sauerkraut alone is one of my most loathed odors. Sardines and sauerkraut sounds like a concoction from the devil himself.
Tequila. Yes, it's my own fault.
Earlier post of Parmesan cheese now this one is reminding me of a story.
for me it's gin, I used to like gin too..
No smell ever bothered me as much as walking into a women’s restroom where the feminine trash bins haven’t been emptied in god knows how long. Truly a messed up smell when that sits out.
That is the smell that gets me too. It is really penetrative.
That's how you attract demons!
Bleeeeeh bringing up the repressed memory of when my sister in law left a nasty used tampon on the floor of the bathroom right in front of the toilet. I had tried to be nice earlier in the evening by offering her a menstrual cup because it would allow her to get busy with bf without the haste of taking in/out a feminine product, plus, no pee string and smelly tampon….but she had the weirdest flex of all; adamant her dried period things don’t smell and blah blah blah…..can confirm. Like her soul, it smelt like infection and death
Expired chicken
Old people homes smell. It's just piss mixed with... oldness.
It smells like organ failure
I was at a podiatrist once and a old couple would come in they both smelled so bad like piss BO never wash their clothes smell. The receptionist sprayed the entire office when they left.
My dad's farts
Oddly relatable
Cleaning vinegar
All vinegar!
I actually LOVE the smell of vinegar and can’t figure out why people dislike it
My mom used to clean the coffee pot with vinegar, and the smell of hot vinegar made me cry.
cat urine
And that musty stuff they spray.
The smell of hospitals
Same it smells dirty and clean at the same time, same with nursing homes.
I don't know if just me but I smell a sharp crisp alcohol metallic medicine smell when I go to the hospital
Rotten meat
My bf and I came home to check for power after evacuating for Hurricane Ida and his roommate neglected to throw away his 32 pack of chicken that was in the freezer before he left. It turned black and blew up from the gases so much so that when he grabbed it to throw it away, his thumb punctured it and it wheezed at him.
Menudo, a popular Mexican food. People down here in south Texas go crazy for it, the smell alone makes me wanna gag. I can’t imagine eating it.
Cow stomach, although the band might also smell bad.
Kraft Grated Parmesan Cheese. I love parmesan but that shit smells like feet and vomit
[удалено]
Parmesan cheese smells like puke because it has butyric acid, which makes vomit smell like vomit.
I think you have no idea how Epoisses de Bourgogne cheese smells like if you consider parmesan as stinky (which it is not that bad for me) . I once had dinner with company managers in Paris and they served as fish .

This is the first thing in the list I’ve really agreed with. Dear god is that rank.
My dog gets a hyper anal gland every time she gets too worked up about something. Disgusting. Followed by the sound of her washing said gland afterward its a true sensory experience.
Ugh I finally know what it’s called. My dog has this really smelly fishy fluid coming out of his anus when he’s scared.
I hate the smell of period blood. Being a female sucks
Yeah it absolutely stinks
Specific af, but there is this one coworker whose pee smells awful. Every single time I go to the toilet after she uses it, I gag and have to spray a shit ton of air freshener. Like, it's not even poop, how can it smell so bad?!
She eats a lot of asparagus
When I was 17 I let a homeless girl stay with me for a few days. Every time she used the bathroom it would stink up the whole place. Absolutely awful but she was just a kid and I didn’t want to embarrass her.
Asparagus, dehydration and vinegar or other acidic things. How much soda or energy drinks does she drink?
[удалено]
That's alot of people and I have never understood why pee smells SO BAD and hw ppl can't tell like carry some air freshener man
If its anything sulfur adjacent its dehydration. Happens pretty often to people tbh, but usually not super strong, just a little tinge of it. Used to happen to me when I drank too much booze and not enough water, I started to notice it.
Might be coffee on an empty stomach
wet dog
Rotten potatoes
It’s been 6 months since I first experienced that I still make my partner get the potatoes out due to fear and trauma. Very few smells makes me literally throw up and that was absolutely one.
Cheerios - there’s something about milk being added that always smells like vomit to me
Im with you on this. I always thought it smelled vaguely like cat pee or something. Either way it stank.
Cigarette smoke
i dont understand why anyone would start. worlds stinkiest substance, expensive, and unhealthy. lets try it and get addicted!
Cooking broccoli
Went on a safari a few months ago. A pond full of hippos wallowing in stagnant “water” has the kind of smell that sticks to your teeth and curls your stomach.
BO.
Scrolled way too far for this. I have a friend who smells so badly you can tell he is present the moment you enter a house or room :/
stale clothes that haven't dried properly, Cat pee, old smokers, drains.
Mine are strangely specific. When someone has peeled an orange and their hands go near my face. Makes me heave. And when someone has had orange squash in a plastic cup, then washed it (badly) and put water in it afterwards. It always smells faintly of orange squash, like it’s infected the plastic cup. Bleugh. I’m ok with actual oranges though and orange juice. Just old, faintly orangey-smelling things make me chunder. Oh, also dog shit.
Durian Fruit. It's... unique.
I heard that despite the smell, the flavor is actually very delicious.
I’ve had a fresh durian. The texture is a smooth and creamy like a very decadent banana pudding, with a different flavor. The odor falls somewhere between the stinkiest blue cheese and rotting flesh. It’s an acquired taste, to be sure, but there are many devotees in the East. And train stations with NO DURIAN signs everywhere.
The first time I got the smell of durian was rough. The closest I can describe is ripped warm wet rubbish bags left out in the sun, abit like silage. That's what I thought it was until my friend showed me what it was.
Idk what the name of this perfume is but most of the middle age and above women I work with wear it. Smells like sugar infused bug spray-- abhorrent.
Gotta be Chanelle #5.
I know exactly what you're talking about. It's the most vile smell in the world and it's inexplicably popular. It also smells like plah-doh and old people
Youth Dew? Aromatics Elixir? Chanel No.5?
I don’t know what it is either - but it’s the worst. Makes me gag. Quit now!
Metal, i dont know why but it makes me nauseous.
[удалено]
To make it worse, that smell isn't metal. It is dirty hand juices reacting to the metal.
I was a dishwasher in college. Large industrial machines. The odor in that room is awful. A mix of every kind of garbage, every kind of food and soap. The atmosphere is steamy and penetrates.
This brings back terrible memories...
My first job was a dishwasher. Scrubbing baked on green chili with hot water smelled horrid.
Spilt coffee. Reminds me of back alleys of Tim Horton's or McDonald's, taking a break from retail or warehouse part-time jobs, waiting too long for the bus in a dirty stop. It's nostalgic in a bad way.
I know I’m not the only one here, but fish that people bring to work to eat for lunch. I have to leave the building, it makes me wretch. That, and when people eat tuna salad, egg salad or salmon salad sandwiches on the bus. Gag.
The middle school wing. In my school it’s like half of don’t know what deodorant is.
A middle school gym after a school dance. UGH.
Burning hair
A house where people smoke inside all day
Cooked chicken gone cold.
Cigarettes. I quit five years ago and that smell is so noticeable and awful. I can't believe I smelled like that all the time.
the smell of a sneeze
Damn my sister was right ! I never believed her, I just can not smell sneeze lol
Yes if the person has a bit of a cold and they sneeze, it smells like bad breath and vomit ew
Thank you!!!! I hate the smell of sneezes. I scrolled down to see if anyone else had mentioned this because I felt like my sister and I were the only ones. I’m glad we are not alone
Wow weird. I always knew that spit smelled weird but now I realize sneezing is bad too. I work in a place that still uses masks. I sneezed like 8 times in one day into my mask. By the end of the day I was like eww wtf
Unwashed men.
You mean the smell of a Magic the Gathering tournament.
Balls and ass. Yep. Gotta wash that undercarriage, gentlemen.
That smelly smell that smells smelly
Anchovies!! 0,0
Dirty diapers
I have smelled some of the worst smells on planet earth (visited plenty of body farms and I worked in a forensic lab) but for some reason, I hate my puppy’s poop. 😂 Can’t stand it
[удалено]
I hate the smell of weed. That’s why I prefer edibles to not have that smell on me
I jokingly say a summertime game we play is "skunk, weed, or skunkweed?" They all smell pretty similar
This: Seriously, weed smells awful and it's SUCH a unique and powerful smell.
Is it weird that I've never even touched a cigarette let alone any type of drugs, but I still love the smell of weed? When you walk around the city and that smell hits you, it's like: damn, that would probably make food taste good.
I get nauseated at the smell of bacon. Never could stand it, but my family was accommodating and would try to ensure I wouldn't have to smell it whilst they enjoyed it by letting me know ahead of time, or opening a window
Fish sauce.
When someone has a dead tooth/halitosis. That mothball smell from someone’s mouth 🤢
ahh Maureen Ponderosa, Maureen. Ponderosa.
Cat vomit
Dirty dick. I haven't come across it as much as I did in high school but if I can smell your dick when you're fully clothed it means you need to shower dudes. And yes, it has a precise smell, just like you boys say we have a smell too.
Southern comfort
There are obvious bad smells (smoke, poop, cat pee) but I don’t like how artificial strawberry smells.
Went through this thread looking for artificial banana. Even the thought makes me nauseous.
There are these trees a block away from my place (i don’t know the name). They grow white flowers for a few weeks during spring time.
Bradford pear trees!
The cum trees? We have these at my work, it's a bleachy-ammonia type smell, just like cum.
I know I'm in the minority here, but I hate the smell of pot. Marijuana smells absolutely disgusting to me. That alone has kept me from wanting try it.
Every time I walk by a neighbor's door I just smell weed. It smells gross.
any axe Cologne. my older brother used it as a shower replacement growing up so it reminds of the over powering axe and BO mixture I endured walking past his room.
The cleaning isle with all the detergent and other stuff. It's too concentrated of a smell and gives me almost immediate headaches
I quit a job at target—the only time I’ve straight up walked out without notice—because they kept putting me in that aisle to stock and straighten it, despite my polite complaints/requests.
Gary, Indiana.
My family travelled from Ontario to British Columbia to visit my grandfather when I was about 8 years old. We took a route that travelled through the northern states on the way there and through Canada on the way back. It took 2 weeks and the only things I really remember from that trip are seeing mount rushmore, and the smell of Gary, Indiana
mayonnaise
Ugh. Having worked as a waiter, the worst part was slopping out mayonnaise from those industrial size containers. Just absolutely foul.
Eggs. Not just hard-boiled in the fridge (ew), but also the smell of cooking scrambled eggs-makes me gag.
Ketchup makes me gag
Adipose tissue.
That smell dads leave when you go to the toilet right after them.
Fresh sweat on top of stale sweat coated with cheap body spray. Knew a girl who stunk horrendously of that and she was the kind of person who cried and had tantrums and went tattling to the principal and teachers if you had a different opinion to her or said you didn’t like when she spoke over you and treated you like dirt so you really couldn’t tell her she smelled bad. She used the body spray as deodorant.
nail polish
Patchouli.
Dirty hippie is how I describe this smell.
Simmering bone broth. My wife makes it all the time and it smells gamy every single time.
Parmesan cheese like what are you trying to prove by putting puke smell/rotten toenail on your food
Blasphemy!
The fake ready grated stuff is bad. I like the smell of the real thing.
Gasoline. Everyone I know loves the smell but I'm coughing and gagging when I'm filling the lawnmower
Same. It can even give me a headache if I smell it for several minutes
Dirty weat dog 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 I don't have any words for this.
Those were all words
Patchouli
Peanut butter breath. I love peanut butter though.
Vanilla scented anything. I can nit stand the artificial vanilla smell.
A freshly mown lawn. I've never met or heard of anyone else who dislikes it. Most people seem to like it. I think those people must be out of their fucking minds. Either that, or we're not smelling the same thing. Maybe it's one of those things with a genetic component where some people can't smell certain compounds.

An alcoholic. The smell is in their sweat. It is a sickly fatty smell that sticks in your nose.
hard boiled eggs when they're cooking. i know 99% of you are going to kill me for this one but i can't do it😷
Shit. In a confined space. Or as we call it in prison "bronzing up" where a prisoner coats themselves in shit. Eats it, masturbates with it, smears it over the walls and their body. And you just have to go in every day and make sure they're not killing themselves. Every few days crime scene cleaners will clean the cell but not them. When you see people using shit as lube, you never quite come back.
I guess it’s a hate love thing but recently I have been non stop smelling this odd cheese tangy smell. I’m not sure if it’s a COVID thing, where I lost my smell and then for months I had to smell this tangy sweet yet cheesecake smell. It was really not bad at the beginning but the it kept getting tangier. Any strong smelling stuff would make me smell that so I had to really stop in depth smelling foods. It’s somewhat gone now but can still smell it at times

Lavender. I just don't see the appeal.
