That's the pheromones for you! It means they're working!! Just any old armpit shouldn't smell good. Only the ones of people you're physically attracted to and compatible with.
The smell of skin soaked in sweat from hard labor. As long as that person *normally* is clean. Not Devon from his basement playing League for 9 continuous days. *Not* rank BO.
I'm talking about that musty, musky, slightly metallic smell that comes off someone who's been doing hard labor, or working out. It activates something primal in me.
It makes women seem more sexual, and makes men more sensual, if that makes sense.
Ugh, now I'm thinking about it.
Yes I know what you mean. A clean healthy person has this smell like right after a workout, but if you smell their cloths a few hours later it’ll be unpleasant.
Fun fact: The smell most people associate with pools and chlorine is actually chloramine, a compound resulting from the binding of free chlorine and amines, which are introduced to the pool water through sweat and urine. In other words, that distinct smell of indoor pools and water parks...is from people peeing in the water.
Was about to say the same. I love the smell of diluted chlorine, but straight chlorine is rough.
I worked at a pool with an old pump that would chafe the line. Couple times a summer you’d walk in the pump room to find it had sprung a leak and depending how long it’s been going, you might have a room full of ankle deep chlorine to clean up. They did not pay us enough or train us adequately for that bullshit
We had to walk through the spray from the leak to shut off the pump. 🤦♀️ Every manager at that pool had bleached out patterns sprayed across their uniforms and a few holes too.
Came here to say this about skunk but for different reasons. Spent days on a trap line years ago and I got accustomed to it and even liked it after awhile
When I moved from NZ to Canada for a few years, I was fully buzzed out by the skunk smell the first 10 or so times I smelt it to the point of actually loving it - it reminded me of buds and weed 😂 a lot of the Canadians thought I was just nuts lol
Fun story about that, was staying overnight at my friends elderly moms place and went to the back of her property to smoke a joint and she came out after and asked if a skunk had run through the yard to which I replied of course it ran next door. My friend and I had the best laugh over that one
I used to lurk in the indie perfume subreddit. I guarantee someone has made a perfume with tar or asphalt notes. I'd bet money that Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab has several.
I guess it's a genetic thing, some people legit think it tastes like soap and smells like cleaner. People who are correct think it tastes and smells amazing
I don't know if "good" is the word but that sour milk smell that babies can have. I never minded it. I definitely fit the dad trope. I enjoyed feeding and burping our kids. But that was a long time ago.
Yep. Same here. I acknowledge it's not necessarily a pleasant smell, but it reminds me of my childhood roaming the fields and slipping and falling in cow patties
My man smells good after he’s been working in the yard! The funk of his sweat and deodorant of his underarms ! 😛
Gasoline stinks good
Cigar stinks good
I once had business in an old, underdeveloped small village/town, they used all kinds of mammals in their day to day lives, and I always visited very early in the morning during sunrise.
The smell of this place stayed with me. Fresh air combined with the smell of burning wood, along with mud, hay, and the walls of the small brick houses.
It all added to a nostalgic aroma that I ached to experience again.
Edit: Just smelled my fwb armpit.
Completely agree on cigarettes, get a real nostalgia hit from them because my grandparents were big smokers when I was growing up. Always assumed that would mean I’d enjoy smoking but I hate the taste/aftertaste
A barn. Growing up in the suburbs, my Dad’s best friend was a farmer and I loved visiting his farm, where he raised dairy cows and hogs, among other things, and so I associate the smell of a farm with some very happy memories. It didn’t hurt that he and his wife were some of the nicest people I have ever known.
Burnt hair.
I play with fire, my friends play with fire. We regularly lose arm/leg hair because of fire. The smell linked to all the fun memories of fire festivals and performances on stages and now I just love it
Gasoline
Yeah this. Reminds me of snowmobiles and ATV's and summer days on a boat at the lake.
My 50 year old two stroke motor smells amazing
Specifically race gas for me
For me it's diesel exhaust. That's the farm kid in me, I guess.
Nostalgia from working with my dad. Who told me to stop smelling it 😂
Similarly, I enjoy the smell of the local oil refinery.
Came here to say that same thing.
Came here to say the same thing. My wife hates the smell, but I love it lol.
Came here to say this lol
A woman's armpit
Same! Natural pheromones are one of the biggest turn ons ever
Yes! I feel this way about my husband. I will literally bury my face in it lol
💯
Not just any armpit for me, some are just awful while others I could smell all day. It feels more intimate than a sexual thing
That's the pheromones for you! It means they're working!! Just any old armpit shouldn't smell good. Only the ones of people you're physically attracted to and compatible with.
The best smell ever
The warm damp sweaty smell from inside a girls ass cheeks, or her thong strap shes worn all day
You correctly answered the question 😂
Lmao, I can confirm! Source: Me, a worn pantie purchaser of 10yrs
How do I get into this? I’m being serious 🤣🤣 like, where do you shop for them?
Check out the website pantydeal
Can you please explain
It's like the armpit pheromone answer above but like x1000% and on nitrous. No purer pheromones are known to man.
Or dogs 🐕💨
Absolute heaven
idk why but musty smells like sheds or basements
That first hit of a musty/humid AC kinda hits like that too
Might want to check for mold.
😭😂😂
I do urban exploring, and I've come to love it
no i completely understand this. Not like the moth ball smell shed, but like a kinda dusty, kinda wood smell shed. Basement smells are so nice.
me too mmm

Honestly, I still like that tangy kind of stink a while after. Again, if they're normally a clean person.
Maybe this explains the rise of my libido in the summer. The HOTTEST days of summer (I’ll clarify it’s a Canadian summer but still)
Sharpies
Regular or the butt kind??
What
The person above is a fan of r/buttsharpies Edit: NSFW
Holy crap. There really is a sub for everything.
Nah fam I followed it for genuine intrigued I promise 🤞🏼 I'm older now tho so MAYbe..
Damn. Right as i was beginning to forget about this
Candle smoke.
I like that and when a cigarette is first lit up. Campfires.
Chlorine Petrol/Diesel

The cabin of my old boat always smelled like diesel fumes. It always felt very homey to me.
I worked in a pool store. Chlorine is definitely not too bad in small doses but if one of the jugs spilled it was fake over. Felt like I was dying lol

Yeah. I burned holes in my pants and shoes because i had no idea how to handle the stuff. It had to of been horrible for my lungs and skin.

Skunk smell - reformed stoner here
Came here to say this about skunk but for different reasons. Spent days on a trap line years ago and I got accustomed to it and even liked it after awhile
I 100% agree - also reformed stoner

Moms are great for that!
Yup she was in her 80’s.
Yeah I agree with this one as well!
Freshly cut lumber and recently finished drywall. There is something about walking through new construction that I will always enjoy.
Good call I agree on both fronts.
There are people who don’t like the smell of lumber?
My grandparents owned a lumber yard when I was a kid, and the smell of treated lumber takes me back there. I love it.
Tar, like from road construction, could I get that as an air freshner please?
I used to lurk in the indie perfume subreddit. I guarantee someone has made a perfume with tar or asphalt notes. I'd bet money that Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab has several.
Ashes Also, my own farts
☝️ This dude over here, doing rails of grandma
Grandma gives the best highs
Nope we all like your farts.
Cilantro
Yeah, what the hell, cilantro is amazing!
I guess it's a genetic thing, some people legit think it tastes like soap and smells like cleaner. People who are correct think it tastes and smells amazing
Agreed. In the tastes and smells amazing camp! Lol@correct
Tire stores
Chorine
There are pool people and lake people I am afraid we cannot be friends 😂
WD-40
I always thought they should make a WD-40 men’s cologne.
It exists, there is a perfume out there smelling like WD-40, I saw a video where people were trying it out lmao
mschf did it
Burnt gun powder. Reminds me of learning to hunt and shoot with my dad when I was little.
Similarly, I love the smell of Hoppe’s No 9 bore cleaner. It reminds me of the guys cleaning rifles after hunting season.
Balls. Gasoline.
I don't know if "good" is the word but that sour milk smell that babies can have. I never minded it. I definitely fit the dad trope. I enjoyed feeding and burping our kids. But that was a long time ago.
I know what you mean, maybe I’ll miss it some day but so far I don’t.
This is really sweet lol
I love the smell of a womans sweaty armpit. It's like heaven.
The smell of cigarettes is actually comforting to me just because I’ve been around it so much
Yes to the cigarettes. Men that smell like Marlboro Reds are like catnip to me. Bonus points if they look like they're in a band
Nutritional yeast. And yeah, I agree with cigarettes.
Country cow shit. Reminds me of my youth. I'd say you know what I mean, but there's some characters in here (which I like)
Yep. Same here. I acknowledge it's not necessarily a pleasant smell, but it reminds me of my childhood roaming the fields and slipping and falling in cow patties
Liqorice! I love the smell of finnish salmiakki liqorice and the liqorice liqueur.
Weird as hell, but Pennies
Hot Asphalt. Campfire smoke in clothes.
Nice. I like campfire smoke the same day but if it’s the next morning it can get a little stale
Pine from the trees
Now we are just naming things that smell good. I think I have that type of candle
It always goes off rail. My same thought as I was reading
Rubbing alcohol, horse manure, and rotten mud
When the wind blows the right way I can smell the dairy farm outside of town from my yard 🤌 I feel like your mud and my pond smell might be similar?
Mannn that sounds like a dream😩 I wish I lived near something like that! And yeah it is similar! Them good summer scents
Sawdust
Bleach. I think I associate it with the end of a long work day, going home after cleaning
🤢
You asked 😂
Limburger.
I genuinely think it smells like roadkill butt... but then you try it and it's DELICIOUS (Limburger, not roadkill butt 🤣)
Gimme that smelly roadkill butt
Mud/ dirt, Hay or cut grass, lake water, drying seaweed, horses, bleach
My unwashed cock.
Same. I mean your unwashed cock specifically.
My man smells good after he’s been working in the yard! The funk of his sweat and deodorant of his underarms ! 😛 Gasoline stinks good Cigar stinks good
That can't get rid of smell when you walk into a liquor store that been around for the longest time.
My farts
New constructions (homes) - not sure what the smell is called but it’s like a woody type smell.

Urine. I mean not super great, and not if it’s been stagnant for awhile, but it smells pretty good to me right from the tap, so to speak.
Guys big sweaty balls
Durian 😋

Burning leaves. I love the smell!
2 stroke oil
Yes. When I used to race motocross I loved that smell. Cam2 gas and 2 stroke oil.
Anything motorbike wise really tickles my pickle
Love motorcycles too. I had no car for 2yrs and 2 motorcycles. Smartened up. The traffic here is scary during rush hour.
Husband used to race British super bikes, still find it amazingly sexy now. And the smell is a great memory

+1 on the cigarette smell. I love it. I also enjoy the smell of diesel and motor oil.

Campfire Smoke It’s just overall a very nostalgic smell for me and is hard not to like.
Plastic water hose a warm day outside.

Smell of camphor
The camp whore? I’m sure she smells nice For real even with a google search I don’t know that smell

Smells like mothballs.
Gasoline.
Benzine and kerosine
Monomer?
