But as it happens, the most anticipated answers to the question about what scents people love aren’t necessarily the only ones that are popular among the general population.
Perhaps, you might be surprised if we told you that millions of people enjoy sniffing tennis balls and nail polish. Or if you knew that the smell of chlorine in the water is what secretly draws us, humans, to pools?
But before we get any further, we ask you to participate in this fun game and let us know what ‘weird’ smell you find the most addictive. Remember to answer honestly and don’t forget to tag your friends in your comment so that they can tell us their preferences!
While you’re thinking about all the weird smells out there, here are the most unusual yet highly popular scents that people can’t get enough of:
- Freshly cut grass
- Nail polish
- Bleach
- Books
- Cow manure
- Body odor
- Tennis balls
- Color markers
- Gasoline
- Glue
- Blown out matches and candles
- Inflatable pool toys
- New shoes
- Rubber
“Nothing beats the smell of gasoline, that’s why I love going to the gas stations even when I don’t need to fuel up,” one person told us.
“I life sniffing freshly bought inflatables for swimming, the scent of plastic is so strong and addictive,” another said.
A third explained: “I know it’s weird but I kinda enjoy the smell of cow manure in the countryside… those nostalgic feelings are real.”
If these answers surprise you, worry not, you’re not alone! And yet millions of people around the world would ditch any perfume for the chance to get a good sniff at one of these.
This leaves us with the question: What unusual scent do you absolutely adore and why? Do you know anyone else with an addiction to weird scents?
