I have too many,lol. Im going with pipe tobacco, my hunting hero smoked one when I was a kid. So did I for quite some time when I got older of course. Also the smell of the old fish smokers we made out of old refridgerators and one from an old outhouse,lol. I used to open the doors on them and take a sniff even when they were not being used,lol.

The whiff of swine on the breeze when scouting in the local WMA prior to the season opening.

X 1,000,000 on Hoppes #9 and I dig the skunk smell too. Not up close and personal, but just enough to ID.

Bacon, coffee and woodsmoke in the pines as you are walking back to camp after a morning hunt. I never developed a real taste for coffee, but I sure love the smell.

A fresh pouch of Levi Garret opened just before slipping into the woods to hunt up some pigs.

A hog wallow, an elk wallow, a deer scrape, a duck marsh...

Man there are a lot of great smells that I associate with hunting adventures.

The smell inside a saddle shop...

The scent of skunk on a brisk fall night...

The smell of rotting leaves on a rainy fall day in the timber...

The smell of fresh brewed coffee first thing in the morning...

Hoppe's No 9 solvent is pretty good...

Freshly mowed alfalfa field...

Woodsmoke on a frosty evening...

These are just a few of my favorite scents. Great thread!

Struck match mixed w/ burning cedar shavings starting my campfire in Adirondacks

Sap boiling on my evaporator as it turns to fresh hot maple syrup

Downed pronghorn mixed in with Sage flat

For you Africa hunters, the smell of a downed springbok when rump hair flairs for few brief moments. Literally smells of sweet honey!!

Honeysuckle

There is something about Tigress or Chanel #5 and a teenage girl that got me married. Or was it the scent of orange blossoms on a hot summer night? Hmmmm
Back there in second place is applewood smoked bacon frying and French roast coffee perking . Then is the smell of a good barbeque and a fresh cut lawn mixed with blooming roses and honeysuckles.
You all can see that I like good combinations. That first one has lasted for over 50 years and never got over it. LOl

God bless you all, Steve

The dry dusty smell of an old tractor, when you're setting in the seat.

Great thread. Scent has incredible power for evoking emotions and memories. Some that take my mind to bowhunting...

-The leather smell of my arm guard and shooting glove.

-Fresh Earth scent elimination spray

-tinks 69 (which I inevitably spill on my hands or clothing)

-Coffee

-Rutting whitetails

-Fresh cut hay field

-Deer being skinned smell
