            Babies! Not the smelly end obviously but I love that fresh baby soapy/shampoo smell.

            Freshly cut grass.

            Turkey cooking - especially on Christmas morning

                    Wood smoke.
                    I love the subtle differences in the smells given off by various types of wood when burnt.
                    Oak, Elm and Applewood in particular give off a lovely rich fragrance.

                    Winter flowering shrubs such as Sarcococca and Lonicera, it's lovely to catch a burst of their sweet scent as you walk past them on a winter's day.

                    That indescribable but distinctive fresh smell which follows a shower on a warm, sunny day in late spring or summer.

                    ....and one for the aviation fans, the lovely smell of that coloured smoke drifting across the airfield on a warm summer's day as an aerobatic team goes through its display.

                            Another smoke vote here - but I would add other smokes too (coal, coke, paraffin etc); other smells are petrol, ozone (you know that smell when it rains for the first time in ages when its hot, and usually a thunderstorm), cut grass, and Mrs C's hair :redface:
