I find this smell highly appealing - verging on arounsing. An innformal polling of coworkers found that most thought the scent at least agreeable if not appealing. Only one person that I asked was indifferent about the scent. The cologne “Fahrenheit” strongly reminds me of this scent as well.
What do you think?
I love it, through “arousing” is a little strong. Don’t know anything about the cologne “Fahrenheit.” Why not just roll around in the fresh-mown grass instead?
Ah, summer!
I love the smell of fresh-mown grass. It’s as lovely as the smell of top-quality first-cutting hay when you break the bale open and get that burst of grassy-goodness aroma as you separate the flakes and toss them to the horses eagerly salivating for
What?
I don’t know about “arousing” but I loves me the smell of freshly cut grass. I have a perfume of it, even.
Add in some horse manure lightly wafting over it … that is one of the most glorious smells ever. It instantly transports me to a balmy spring day on some English estate. Yum.
Freshly cut grass–one of my favourite scents in the whole wide world! It’s hard to resist the urge to roll around on it, like a dog on a dead fish.
Dead fish, not so much a favourite odour.
Grass? Wait… that’s that green stuff that I vaguely remember from when I used to live back East, right? Ah, yes, I used to like the smell when it was cut. Haven’t smelled it in years, though.
I hate the smell of cut grass.
It’s reminiscent of watermelon to me.
I love that smell, just not the same way you do. To me it’s the smell of my early childhood summers, and going to my grandparent’s house in the country and playing in the fields with my cousins(and maybe the dog) until it got dark out… The city version is the smell of the pavement getting wet when it first starts to rain during a thunderstorm.
I like it because it means its warm enough outside that the grass has grown long enough to mow.
I love that smell. It’s somehow better when it’s been cut with a gas-powered mower, though.
Yes, indeed. But I really want to know where Beans, Cod as shown on your post, is located. Or are located.
Yes, it reminds me of summer in my youth. But cut grass also gives me very bad hay fever and I have trouble breathing. So also no.
It’s a Hun gas attack! Put your masks on, men!
The smell of freshly mown grass is filling the air all around me at the moment. The Sunday morning lawn mower brigade are all hard at it, before it gets too hot.
I do quite like the smell though. It’s just the noise that I can’t stand.
I actually hate it. It smells so repellant to me - not BAD, exactly, but ‘something which should not be in my lungs’ - that my throat shuts down and I can’t even breathe when it’s strong.
I love the smell. It reminds me of baseball.
Fresh cut grass and new mown hay take me back to happier times.
Freaking love it. Years later I’m still kicking myself for not buying a bar of soap with that scent, when surely the soap would be long gone by now (and I can’t find it at the store I saw it at).
clears throat
To Boston, the Hub of the Universe,
The home of the bean and the cod,
Where Cabot speaks only to Lowell
And Lowell speaks only to God.
