A smelly smell that smells smelly

[Athene]

Haha Man, I could tell you some stories about screaming in my head and being calm IRL. Do you have girls or boys or both?

Two boys. And contrary to popular belief, they can be just as ridiculously hormonal as girls during adolescence. Thankfully, they are past most of that now, although my youngest still has his moments.

I remember reading something about boys reaching an age where, if they were to get tested and it was held against them, they would be clinically insane. Makes sense to me,

Men and women of AF- how important is smell to you when either deciding on a mate/partner, or in how attractive you find a person?

I came here from the "what model toilet do you have?" thread. This was not what I was expecting!

[ignoramus]

I know!

PS, something smells...did someone just let one out?

If I could hickory smoke my wife and have the rib fantasy all day long I could put up with that.

I wonder if this will differ between men an women. I know I appreciate when a woman makes the effort to smell good with whatever fragrance, but I think I'm more concerned with her not smelling bad.

What do you think? Do you think? Is it a thing you even realize you care about?

I have known several women whose natural scent I have found intoxicating, the last of these is my delightful wife. It is not the be all and endall but it helps.

I encountered an otherwise nice man (mitt hairy chest!) who's personal aroma (?) was not compatible with me. At all. And lord knows I tried to ignore it, but I just couldn't.

Precisely once I encountered a guy with a bad breath aroma that I found attractive. Still not sure what that means about bad breath in general or me.

Doyle's feet were heavenly when he took his cowboy boots off after wearing them all day. The leather aroma combined with his scent and it was exquisite.

People go:

"Damn she's hot"
"And she smells intoxicating too!!"

People don't go:

"Damn she smells intoxicating!"
"And she's hot too!!"

From my personal experience,being hot is #1 smell comes only after that.But it still comes after that.

There's one guy whose old sweat odor was hard to stand. Even worse when combined with his bad breath. Yuck. Wouldn't want to get close to him. There was this other guy, who smelled real nice, but I wouldn't want to get close to him if he didn't look real nice too.

And one girl who had this sweat+cigarettes aroma to her....ew. And one other girl whose perfume was almost addictive, but wouldn't make me like her as much as I did if she wasn't as hot as she was....is.

So I guess bad smell is a deal breaker, but nice smell is a nice bonus only.

There is this aroma common to all women that really turns me on. To further this thought I need to get over A69.
