Default Your favourite smell(s)?

Weird question perhaps, but it struck me as I was going into Tescos that one of the most pleasant and welcoming smells for me is fresh bread baking. There's just something so homely and warm about it, and it always puts me in a good mood.

Then there's aviation fuel. That goes back to when I was a kid, and as a treat (cos we lived near it) we would often get taken to the airport to watch the planes. And this was back when you could actually stand outside and breathe the fumes in, before all this security stuff later meant you had to watch through thick glass windows! Then when I became a planespotter in the 80s, that smell was part of my life for about five years.

And finally, coffee. I hate coffee, but even I have to admit the smell of freshly roasting coffee is a lovely welcoming smell.

So, anyone?
