Top 10 Most Intoxicating Smells on Earth


if you make perfume for a living
listen up and take notes oh oh Christ
that’s good stuff that’s high test let’s
get a – yeah yeah go for it go for it
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
best smells on earth for this list we’re
taking a look at the most pleasant aroma
on the planet however we’ve excluded
food because that’s a list for another
day oh this tastes like Grandma holy
Moses it does taste like Grandma number
10 freshly cut grass we test all three
cutting modes the good side discharge
mower evenly distributes clippings on
the grass mowing the lawn in the
scorching Sun on a summer day may be
arduous work but all that hard labor
will pay off once you sniff that freshly
mown grass damn I love the smell of
fresh-cut grass filling people with
pride and joy this refreshing fragrance
will make anyone appreciate plant life
assuming you don’t have bad allergies
although mowed grass certainly smells
Pleasant this scent is actually a
distress signal what is it
research shows that when lawnmower
blades damage grass airborne chemical
compounds called green leaf volatiles
are emitted these oxygenated
hydrocarbons not only create an earthy
aroma but can also attract predatory
insects that defend injured plants who
would have thought that such a
delightful smell was actually a cry for
help
why would anyone do drugs when they
could just mow a lawn number nine
tobacco but the inside is brown maybe
the tomato seeds crossbred with the
tobacco seeds oh great I get a field
full of mutants just to be clear we’re
not talking about cigarettes and cigars
which have an acquired smell and taste
even if you’re not a fan of smoking
though it’s hard to deny that the smell
of tobacco leaves is incredibly
addictive tobacco plants possess a musky
fragrance that’s strong but also
surprisingly sweet walking through a
tobacco garden or a tobacco shop is a
truly stimulating experience for your
nose what’s more there’s just something
very old-fashioned and laid-back about
the scent of tobacco ultimately making
us admire the simpler things in life I’m
not crazy about the plutonium or
nicotine but it is very nice to see Bart
eating his vegetables number eight
gasoline petrol uh hello full service as
intoxicating as it smells
we should probably acknowledge up front
that inhaling too much gasoline can be
hazardous to your health and in the
interest of safety I’m gonna go ahead
and just make sure that this is in fact
gasoline because Charlie likes to keep
booze in here sometimes let’s do that
yeah yeah we wouldn’t recommend smelling
the stuff on a daily basis or partaking
in gasoline fights for that matter
nevertheless we can’t help but take a
small width of that potent petrol every
time we fill up our gas tank the aroma
of gas is pretty energizing making us
feel all tingly inside are you sure it’s
gasoline though I should just try it
again oh Jesus
geez this is largely because gasoline
contains a chemical compound known as
benzene which has a naturally sweet
scent when I wake up in the morning the
first thing I do is I roll over sit up
smell my gas bottle studies also show
that gas smells especially appealing
when we’re hungry further encouraging us
to eat huh so that’s why those gas
station hot dogs suddenly look so
appetizing what kind of lunch can you
get for a dollar – gas station hot dogs
that were a year old if they were a day
thank you very much number 7 vanilla you
like this camera and within like a
minute
you can smell this beautiful delicious
that’s the moola Cory vanilla musk if
you asked someone to describe the smell
of vanilla they might use words like
bland and plain
your cologne Danny you pinky or for
vanilla disgusting Cologne those folks
aren’t opening their nostrils wide
enough however often used to flavor ice
cream and other desserts this substance
is derived from orchids and possesses a
milky scent that’s strong and subtle
simultaneously helping myself to a big
scoop in addition to food vanilla can be
used to give your house a clean
comforting aroma which is guaranteed to
create a positive atmosphere simply put
a couple drops of pure natural vanilla
on the filter before you install it I’ll
give your home a pleasant aroma also if
you have a hot date coming up and want a
smell as sexy as possible vanilla
perfume will get the job done whether
we’re talking about vanilla extract
vanilla bean or vanilla paste this is
truly one of the most alluring smells in
existence Oh YUM number six
leather washes wearing leather pants
there’s nobody else see the Ross is
wearing leather pants
have you ever wanted to own a really
good-smelling pair of pants then you
might want to purchase some leather
trousers although you’ll likely raise a
few eyebrows walking down the street of
course there are plenty of other ways to
drape oneself in the masculine smell of
leather which is also used to
manufacture wallets luggage and
furniture with a dominating scent
leather sends out powerful vibes that
will make you feel like a rebellious
biker or a rugged Rancher that’s
probably because this durable material
is made out of animal skin which
undergoes a tanning process you want to
make this leather smell good don’t you
of course and so she’ll wear vanilla
typically attract men to women leather
will have the ladies all over you until
those leather pants shrink we’re good
number five warm laundry
who’s this gorgeous guy why does he
smell so darn good holy nostrils that
smells so nice few things on this planet
smell worse than a bag of dirty laundry
particularly if you have horrendous Bo
well you smell bad and the smell of warm
clean laundry however is bound to leave
you feeling cozy and fuzzy several
factors go into giving your laundry that
invigorating scent for starters you’ll
want to use a detergent that can take
out even the strongest of odors it
eliminates the yoga aroma
so I can breathe easy adding a little
vinegar and baking soda to the equation
won’t hurt either after a couple of
cycles in the washer throw your laundry
into the dryer width of fabric softener
sheet of course if you want your laundry
to smell especially refreshing get
yourself an outdoor clothesline the
heavenly smell is well worth the extra
effort you smell so good because I did
laundry I smell like a baby in a damn
meadow number 4 rain even if rain turns
the sky gray it smell will brighten your
day I know it is wet and the Sun is not
sunny I know it is damp and the
sidewalks are runny this scent makes you
feel as if you’ve just taken a soothing
shower leaving you with a clean essence
the earthy aroma of rain actually has a
scientific name petrichor this name is a
combination of Petra which means stone
in Greek and Iker which was the blood of
gods in Greek mythology petrichor often
accompanies rain following a long dry
spell resulting in a wonderful fragrance
before a storm even kicks in you can
still sense rain is coming through a
scent called ozone which interestingly
got its name from the Greek word meaning
to smell science has never smelled so
good
number three sea breeze it doesn’t get
any more relaxing than lying on the
beach with the sun shining down on you
and a gentle sea breeze drifting through
the air this luxurious scent washes over
people like a mild wave cleansing their
aura of all stress and negativity I
cannot wait to get you ladies out to the
sea numerous fragrance companies have
created perfumes and colognes that
replicate the cool crisp aroma we
associate with the ocean and while some
come pretty close to capturing its
essence nothing can quite top going down
to the seashore and inhaling a whiff of
calming sea breeze firsthand I got a
great idea for a cologne it’s called the
beach you spray it on and it’s just like
you came home from the beach hmmm a
cologne that smells like the beach
number two fresh flowers uh-huh it’s
Purdy
flowers in general are known to smell
like paradise whether you prefer lilies
daisies lilacs or Jasmine lavender
notably deserves a special shout-out as
it’s been used in the perfumery business
for eons given their exquisite scent it
makes sense that we habitually give
flowers to our loved ones in order to
create an affectionate or romantic
atmosphere almost 1 million tulips have
been planted here in Ottawa in addition
to attracting humans the fragrance of
flowers also entices insects to
pollinate and create even more if you
want to experience nature don’t forget
to stop and smell the roses I’d give
anything to be able to smell a flower
like that before we sniff our top pick
here are some honorable mentions
I’m awake here oh oh this isn’t honest
that that gets new car smell they are
ten billion a number maybe more
number one campfires let’s gather around
the campfire and sing our campfire song
our camb fi re s ong thumb when we think
of aromas that encompass the great
outdoors in all its majesty campfires
immediately come to mind submitted for
the approval of a midnight society I
called a story
the tale of the Phantom cab the
combination of smoke and wood creates a
musky fragrance that will send you into
a tranquil content state breathing in
that uplifting campfire smell it’s as if
all your worries have melted away
if you traditionally go camping with
your family or friends this magnificent
scent likely holds a special place in
your heart campfires are like beacons
that unite people in harmony especially
if you’re roasting some marshmallows and
have traditional tunes playing via
conveniently placed guitars the first
time ever I saw your face do you agree
