Bread just out of the oven. Turkey just out of the oven. I agree with the person who said skunk (a whiff). Orange blossoms. The bitterness of marigolds. Good whiskeys. A variety of great cocktails. Burning fat on a grill. I agree with freshly mown grass. Even gasoline mixed with freshly mown grass. Freshly split or cut wood. (Each species has its own smell.) Fallen oak leaves. An evergreen forest. Cookies in the oven. Cooking broccoli or Brussels sprouts. (Joking about those—I love to eat them, but the cooking smell is nasty.) The smell of Madeleine cakes brings the remembrance of things past (most famous insider literary reference for the cognoscenti).
