Most air fresheners have flowery scents. Women like them, I suppose.
How about air fresheners with scents that men like ?
"Steam Locomotive" - Coal, steam, hot oil and metal.
"Racetrack" - Fuel, hot tyres, hot oil and metal, tarmac.
"Aviation" - comes in 2 flavours:
Classic - High
octane petrol, dope, leather, castor oil
Techno - Jet kerosene, hot metal, warm electronics
"Guy Fawkes" -Woodsmoke, fireworks, (over) baked potatoes, treacle toffe.
"Wargames" - nitro powder smoke, crushed vegetation, tea, biscuits, napalm (Oh, i love the smell if napalm in the morning).

Sadly, it doesn't say what it smells like, and probably doesn't actually smell like sweaty athlete. [pottedstu, Jun 13 2002, last modified Oct 21 2004]

This smells like a garage that someone spritzed vanilla into. [mylodon, Nov 03 2008]

Don't they smell the same? |
|
| |
It's that cheesy, fishy smell that turns me on. |
|
| |
If you can't stand 360•, join the war on aroma. (see link) |
|
| |
I'm not being funny, but my favourite smell in the world is the smell of bicycle shops - try it, you'll never look back. |
|
| |
How about 'Essence of Uhu' for glue-sniffers? |
|
| |
"Home Depot" (trademarked, I know, but think of the marketing tie-in). There's lumber, machine oil, vague hint of paint fumes, and the particular smell of the power tools section - wow! |
|
| |
Quarterbaker: Ooooh, Home Depot .... yes ! When I'm stateside I visit Home Depot and cry inconsolaby over all the 110V 60Hz power tools and the kit that's too darned big to go in my hand luggage. |
|
| |
Blissmiss: Duct tape ? Now that brings back a few happy memories .... |
|
| |
I thought of another couple - the smell of freshly unpacked PC kit (Quick, nurse, the screens !), and "New Car" although I know they already make that one for giving pre-owned vehicles that "new car" smell ...... |
|
| |
Cofee! Liked by almost all? |
|
| |
sawmill, hammond, cigar, leather, books, winter: all manner of extinct or endangered species :-( |
|
| |
I'm told that he is pleasantly fragrant. |
|
| |
[po] heh
Creosote - actually I know someone who has purposely made their shed smell of creosote. |
|
| |
I like "warm electronics" idea. All this low temperature surface-mount stuff they make these days doesn't smell nearly as good as the old seventies tellys with the hot circuit boards. |
|
| |
Do you mean the smell of solder flux or burning dust? |
|
| |
WD40 - it's already in an aerosol. Just find some way to remove the oil and solvent and keep the more volatile chemicals. |
|
| |
I must say, the aroma of recently detonated military-grade high-explosives has always made me swoon. That and burnt black powder. [+] |
|
| |
Soldiers always smell of gun oil, swaeat and tobacco smoke. Makes 'em easier to find if you're an insurgent with a keen nose. |
|
| |
[hippo] - I think the smell was 70% burning dust, 20% solder flux, 10% sweat of underpaid Japanese worker and 100% "School is over for the day, I have a hot chocolate and Rainbow is on in five mins". |
|
| |
Magic purple smoke. [LIST ALERT!] |
|
| |
Week old sweat socks. Hey [UB] you could use it in the
Socketorium and bring in the jocks. |
