    Mrs L’s lady bits after a decent shower….

    Ladybits smell far better before a shower. They smell of girl rather than shower.

    In one of her books Pat Barker has a female character describing not sharing with her husband, as he’s pissed her off, “the smell of **** the night before ****”

    A lot of all of that ^

    And frying onions. They’ve been in the pan 2 minutes: “What are you cooking? It smells amazing!”

    Me to my mum when I was growing up, me to wife now, her to me.

    They just smell good!

    Love the smell of a good pub. Also freshly baked bread or pie.
