Some good ones I forgot, Andrew & Misti.
I think the new baby smell (for me, anyway) is the baby powder (though I know you're not supposed to use it any more). Love baby powder smell.
And there is nothing like clean laundry smell (it doesn't work coming out of the dryer though even with dryer sheets that are supposed to smell like the great outdoors).
Also:
fresh cut grass

Phoenix -- my husband has been sucking cough drops with eucalyptus and he swears they clear his sinuses (to tie this in to another thread).

mckenzie, I love the smell of a fire in the fireplace (i.e. wood smoke), too. Forgot that one. Tonight would have been a good night for a fire -- cold and rainy and windy.
Do these smells bring back memories to all of you?

Funny, I love puppies so very much -- but to look at, cuddle, pet, play with -- not to smell.
The smell of a pipe reminds me of my Dad, so I love that one, too.

Love lilacs, too, but can't have them in the house -- too strong and I get a headache. So I have a lilac bush in the yard and enjoy them in the great outdoors where my sensory system is not overwhelmed.

The nape of a newborn's neck. (Unbeatable ~ but, I'm a Mom.)
A puppy or kitten's breath.
The underlying scent of a man who has just passed the same spot you're in......of your favorite cologne......Polo comes to my mind.....
