It better smells good...

in CCC12 days ago






I have a thing about smells, and if something or someone doesn't look good, I'll walk around the block or my eyes and nose will get irritated (my mood will too, for that matter). I don't like the waft of perfume or aftershave. The problem is that when I smell those odors, I don't smell them as a whole, but in parts, just like the person themselves. This means that no matter how expensive the air purifier is, I still smell the stinky person.

We recently got new ventilation systems, along with smoke detectors and other things we didn't want. The contractor also caused considerable damage to our house because of this. The annoying thing about the ventilation system is that when the neighbors are cooking, our house stinks terribly. Sometimes the air is so suffocating that we spontaneously start coughing. Surely we can't be sitting in the middle of winter with the front door open and the fan on, coughing through the food cooked by others?

So if you cook or use some kind of scent (that chemical stuff from deodorant to shampoo and who knows what else) it better smelsl good and not cause allergies.

Trust me, if you stink I'll say it!

Would we say something smells, stinks if we are raised by telling us it's the best odour in the world? I wonder...

What can I say, The smells of people's food can sometimes be pleasant, even when we're about to buy fast food. The smell either attracts us or repels us. But one smell I love is that of warm, freshly baked bread. This smell simply invites you to buy . It's the best form of marketing for selling bread, in my opinion.

I agree. It was what I did years ago around 5 am but today I no longer buy bread.

Would we say something smells, stinks if we are raised by telling us it's the best odour in the world? I wonder.

It is hardly possible to teach to consider an unpleasant aroma pleasant. If I don't like something, then I can't force myself to love it.

I was lucky, I lost my sense of smell a few years ago, I can't feel what the neighbors are cooking, what a person or animal smells like. When I make myself coffee, I remember how it smells, but I don't feel it((
When this happened, everything annoyed me, I didn't have enough flavors, but now I'm used to it)

I wonder how one can get used to not smelling anything. you must have a very good memory. I know the smell can decrease but just the memory of liking the smell of coffee or...
My daughter has a very bad smell which a time came at hands as the rotting leaves had to be removed from the roof.
The downside is that I smell way more than my children from a considerable distance. They are able to let the food burn without smelling anything, even if it's burning down the house.

Do you still taste now you smell is gone? For example if you close your eyes?

The aromas remained in my memory. If I close my eyes and they give me a task to identify a cucumber or lemon by the smell, I won't be able to guess, I can't smell them.
Oh! If you only knew how much food I burned (( How many pots and pans had to be cleaned of carbon deposits for a long time.

I find it amazing, since there's no way I can picture the taste of cucumber.

The only things I once burned without noticing was corn

And a legion of water kettles. My father even said I had to ask a kettle factory for reduction.

I asdume the main reasons were I was distracted.
