A new car smell...swoons... you know they plant the scent in the air filters, replace the filters and walaaa new car all over again!
 
Ummm Patty.. Have you been nipping at the wine? Some of those answers are kinda odd.
 
Eh wot?

(checks list)

Oh. I see what you mean. Right.

For #10, "your own flatulence," strike that and insert "your mother's flatulence."

From the time I was a wee lad I'd take a deep sniff whenever I passed a "dead skunk in the middle of the road" (there's actually a song titled that) and then I found out that I wasn't the only one. I think that there is a place online where you can buy a vial of scent to tote around with you when you need a fix. And I must add that my new word of the day is "fromage". As in famunda fromage sandwiches.

I like the smell of new books, those that have never been opened before!

Horse muck and garlic, the horse muck is a natural country smell, some in the
list i do not know, and can not remember how a new car smells.

New car smell is okay for a quick whiff, but then gives me a headache. Always liked the smell of markers and roasting garlic (yummy!).
