I like the smell of ozone myself. Sensi is also a good smell I like. I like to wear drakkar cologne, but in very small doses.

I mentioned Chantilly, and then my mother gets me a bottle for my birthday. Weirdness.

The first girl I was ever really in love (as I knew it at the time) with always wore CK`s Obsession. In the time since then that scent has become one of the most over-worn perfumes in the history of man, but I still turn my head involuntarily every time I catch even the slightest trace of it in the air. I miss her perfume, but there`s one even better than that. When things were at their best between us and we were able to spend some long stretches of time together, we`d go out clubbing and after a looong night come home to end the day. I always showered first to get the smoke off (a particularity that I have even now) and then she`d do the same just before we went to bed. To this day, the smell of a girl beside me who`s fresh out of the shower with no makeup, no perfume, no nothing… it just kills me. Bottle *that*, call it Calvin Klein`s “Clean” and we`ll make a billion.

Vanderbuilt perfume reminds me of my grandma Katie, while any of the older avon perfumes reminds me of my great-grandma . Oh, and Eternity is such a turn on for me. I love it when my boyfriend wears some. Also, Tommy colgne will forever remind me of being in high school. It seemed every guy wore it.

There`s a particular smell to smokers who drink a lot of beer. Not a bad smell, just a beer-n-tobacco smell. My dad had it, and he died too young, and now occasionally I`ll walk past some guy in a flannel shirt and baseball cap and that smell will hit me like a ton of bricks, with all the memory and grief of missing my dad.

drakkar noir (before dale jr starting hawking it). there was this hot puerto rican guy in my class at fort gordon… and i don`t know if he was hot because he smelled good, or if he smelled good because he was hot… but yeah. it`s hot.

There`s something about grandma perfumes. They don`t make `em like they used to.

Chantilly. My grandmother wore Chantilly religiously until the day she died. Her house always smelled of it. When she died, I got her bottle of Chantilly. I still have it, and wear it periodically, and it always makes me think of her.
