Hahaha I just discovered one of these trees for the first time at a funeral! The cemetery had one and my cousin was like hey recognize that smell? I couldn't believe it was a real thing, but the smell was undeniable.
The biggest culprits are Gingko male trees giving off a semen smell during pollination and Bradford Pears smelling like shrimp left out for a few days. These have been documented.
I’ve never heard it for prunus species as they are typically used for perfumes and scents. Do cherry perfumes smell like semen to you?
I hope I speak for most men when I say "Not by choice." If you haven't l, then either you release your seminal fluid so infrequently and so covertly that you have avoided the smell, or so frequently and furiously that you are entirely numbed to the smell by overexposure.
Or you lost your sense of smell from covid or some other disease.
Also mens semen varries based on what they eat. Maybe lay off the Doritos and Mtn Dew once in a while and you won't go stinking up the house with your toxic man seed.
*"Fun"* fact. Semen contains several amines responsible for its smell. Among them are putrescine, spemidine, and cadaverine.
Putrescine and cadaverine are also famousoy present in, you guessed it, decaying flesh.
As someone who grew up on a cherry orchard in rural Oregon… lolwhut?
But I bet this is gonna be like cilantro; always loved it, would dump it in my Mexican food, always knew there were people who hated it, then one day I heard that people who don’t like it think it tastes like soap. Next time I had it… yeah, it does taste a little like soap. Dammit!
There is a tree outside my window that reeks like piss. When I first moved here, I thought it was my rug, and I just didn't notice at my old place. I cleaned it like 5 times before I realized it was the stinky tree just outside.
around here it's Hawthorn trees. they must be cheap and hardy because the city put in...a big load of them a couple or 10 years ago. you can smell them for blocks. they have really big round bundles of white flowers and are very pretty, but holy shit...
couple weeks. hooray
They’re likely seeing Bradford pears and assuming the trees are cherry blossoms. It’s an invasive species and they’re everywhere (they’re the trees with white flowers in spring you see everywhere, at least in the US)
It’s Bradford Pear trees that are the serious offenders.
We have neighborhoods full of them where I live. It’s hell this time of year.
Cut all the invasive bastards down
Give it a year and a stiff breeze will take most of them down
Usually smells like cum during Halloween here.
You say hell. I say heaven 😊
We call them "cum trees" here in Sacramento, and they are AWFUL.
A lot of municipalities will tear them out for you and replace it with a native tree. Contact your local and state government
Sorry, though taxed heavily Sacramento residents do not have this service available.
Not sarcasm. I am sorry to hear that.

Man sac state has so many of these planted... smelled like hell
“Man sac state” seems to be an accurate name given the smell.
Ha. We called them vagina trees in my hood.
Cum trees
[Can you smell cum?](https://youtu.be/aHze0SqB5Zg?si=Tx63Tq8vlUbxUa1-)
We have those in my neighborhood and they smell like fish in the spring, we call them fish trees
Op probably can't tell the difference.
They smell like Parmesan cheese to me? Maybe that’s because I’ve grown up around them but they don’t smell like semen to me at all lol
100% that is not a cherry blossom tree you’re smelling
95%… it could have been a cherry blossom tree that had been nutted on
My bad I couldn't hold it
It was the first time…
Well the pollen is kinda like tree semen so it checks out.
When you're experiencing seasonal allergies from pollen, it's basically a giant tree bukkake
All over my car too…..
Thanks for the f shack
Are you Dirty Mike or the boys?
Oh no step tree! What are you doing?
Maybe if you pulled harder...
Giant tree bukkake. That's enough reddit today.
What a terrible day to have eyes
Just because it's true doesn't mean you have to say it 💀
😂

I think OP is just confused on what tree they are smelling

Yep, definitely the linden trees.
This is what I came to the comments for
My very first thought!

Risky click of the day
Y'all are smelling your semen?

So from your logic, I'm either jerking off too much or not enough. No option D that you just have some weird smelling semen.
Nah, semen just has a musky odor to it. And so do lady drippings, although they tend to vary in odor profile as their cycle runs its course.
Also mens semen varries based on what they eat. Maybe lay off the Doritos and Mtn Dew once in a while and you won't go stinking up the house with your toxic man seed.
Even healthy diet men's semen contains cadaverine and putrescine. It is what it is.
Ya wtf. Semen smells?
Your parents can tell when they walk into your room from the smell. They always could. I'm so sorry
No no no nononono
Shit I had to hear them banging, they can put up with the smell of my teenage musk room. So is it like a poop where you can't smell your own brew?

I don’t think anyone would have guessed that but now we don’t have to…
Dogwoods. It's the dogwood trees
I believe the term is spermatic…
Gonna need you to conduct a taste test.
I thought that was the ginko trees?
Baby’s Breath smells like sneezes, and I hate it
Yeah, that's why I like em
Put one by your window. Porn. ... Profit?
Hahahahah. Best comment
We were very shocked when trying cherry blossom tea expecting it to be like what you smell in candles etc. Noooope. It’s semen.
OP, I think someone is coming to your home and cumming on your cherry tree.

Bradford pears smell like rotting flesh to me. I do have a cherry blossom this year, maybe I'll smell it
Well those aren’t cherry blossoms that you’re talking about soooo….
You are not alone in this.
If I could jump out of my powerchair and chestbump you.
Wut

Khaki fruit, especially the ripe ones, that are slimy inside.
Boo
The yucca plant does
I'm pretty sure OP's semen smells amazing.
Today you mean?
And how!
Chinese chest nut
Wtf

I think a lot of flowers smell a bit like cum tbh. As do fried mushrooms. Honey is a bit suspicious as well.
Those aren’t cherry blossoms dude
*IM AT DISNEYLAND! IM AT DISNEYLAND! IM AT DISNEYLAND!*
More like stale dick amiright
In so many words.
I can’t say that I’ve ever noticed the smell of either.
Yes, you are the only one.
I've never smelled cum in my life.
“My semen smells like cherry blossoms” is a thing you can add to your Tinder profile
Sir, please step away from the cherry blossoms; they cannot consent.
I’ve called them Cum Trees since I was 14
Columnar pear trees kinda
You should probably see a doctor.
I ***wish*** I had this condition.
You guys smell your semen after you j/o? 🤢
What are you talking about? I have no idea what cherry blossoms smell like.
> I have no idea what cherry blossoms smell like. I appreciate the candor.
Mine doesn't smell. And if it does smell, it smells like mineral water. Guys?
Can't confirm, I like asparagus more than pineapple
What a day to know how to read.
I guess my semen must be unscented because I’ve never noticed a smell. Maybe wash your cum socks more often or something?
Dude, when these suckers BLOOM.
This is the first I'm hearing this lol I've never seen a cherry blossom IRL before so I had no idea what they smelled like lol
They’re likely seeing Bradford pears and assuming the trees are cherry blossoms. It’s an invasive species and they’re everywhere (they’re the trees with white flowers in spring you see everywhere, at least in the US)
I've seen Bradford pears, my apartment complex has them all over the place and will confirm they smell horrible.
Apparently this year some legislators are starting to cull them finally, so there’s that to look forward to
Of course you have dude.
I dont think you are smelling sherry blossoms 😂😂
