Some fragrances I like are:
Castrol R
Fresh brewing Kona coffee
Steak on a hot charcoal grill
1982 Chateau Cheval Blanc
Connolly leather
Virginia tobacco
Honeysuckle in bloom
Cool mountain air
IMR 4895
Cordite

I like the hot metal/oil smell of the primary case when opened up.

Am I alone in liking the fumes that come out of the breather hose when the bike has been running for a while?

Re: guitars: I started playing at age 12 on my father's 1964 Gibson Country & Western that he bought used in 1965, which has been with me for 21 years now. It's the precursor to the Hummingbird without the flashy inlay (I think Cheryl Crow plays one). If honey had a sound, this guitar would match it. It smells like old rosewood and rotting skin/oils from all my playing.

That reminds me I need to clean the fretboard and replace the strings.

The scent of a woman after a shower!  (There is not a need for perfume, an even expensive and very pleasant fragrance, in this case!)

My list of favorites is long, and I just added a new one. On my trip I crossed the Eastern Washington desert area westward out of Coulee Dam.   It began raining that morning and the desert turned green, and gave off a most fragrent, sweet spicy aroma. The best I can describe it is: Sage mixed with sweet floral.

Then the showers passed and it reached 104 farenheit. It just smelled HOT.
