Smells

[ribbons]

Another favorite smell I forgot to list:  Toasted marshmallows

I once had a toasted marshmallow milk shake, with a toasted marshmallow on top.  It was to die for.

My daughter gave me Daisy by Marc Jacobs as a gift a few years ago.  It's a really nice fragrance if you like floral-forward perfumes.  Also has just a hint of musk, which balances the sweetness. 

Ah nice, I like that fragrance too, I wore it to the party last Friday in fact.

^ Really?!  * cues Twilight Zone music *

Well, maybe not such a coincidence - it's popular, and seems to me a *Mrs. Waffles* sort of scent.

A few more I just thought of...



The smell of fresh mint leaves.

Fresh pine.

New lumber.

The ocean at high tide.

A camp fire on a cold night.

The inside of a greenhouse filled with plants.

The smell of WD-40

OMFG just hearing you describe this makes me want one right now.

Here you go, DJ!

The smell of WD-40

Somehow WD-40 becomes much more interesting in Norwegian.

Haha, maybe 😄

We got swedish up top, then finnish, danish and norwegian at the bottom 🙂

I thought the Finnish part looked very different than the others. 

I have never smelled WD-40.  Next time I go to the hardware store I'll take a sniff.

I've never really noted much of a distinctive smell of WD40 either, and I worked at a hardware store for two years.

I also had to use a lot of it to remove a coaxial cable from the wall last year to replace the modem and router. The mister had his old one for like 7 years, never touching it in that whole time, and it had rusted to the wall screw.

Not a fun day!

Yes, it's the only one which isn't a Germanic language. I don't really understand finnish, but I can usually understand danish and swedish just fine!

Oh, you guys need to get a whiff. It's not a very strong smell, but very pleasant.

It has so many uses already, so probably works as a perfume too 👌

LOL!  I've never been so eager to visit the hardware store.

That's very impressive, Mrs. Waffles    Seriously.  I'm the least handy person on earth; I bought a pink drill last month from Amazon and still haven't taken it out of the box.

I'm not the handiest person, there's certainly some skills I've picked up, both from working at my old hardware store job and doing stuff at home, but power tools are my weak spot so I feel you on that. I can do hammers and nails and wrenches and screws and all that, but you give me a drill or an electric saw or anything and I'm like nope, haha.
