I like :
Sweet Peas
Basil
Lemon Basil
Strawberries
But the most outstanding and memorable smell for me is tomatoes in the greenhouse on a warm day!!! This is a wonderfull aroma that transports me back 60 years to my grandad's greenhouse.

There's a herb that I really love the smell of but I've forgotten what it is it is fern like, about 2ft tall, perennial and reliably comes back every year, can be used sparingly in a dessert? It's seed is about 1.5 cm and it long and thin anyone up for guessing?
I love the smell of sweetpeas but it gives me a migraine in the house!
I love the smell of honeysuckle on my yard, the roses in my garden when in bloom.
Smells for indoors are all food related rosemary, basil, I love bay, oranges, fresh tomatoes - even the foliage,

I like most all of what everyone else likes - how boring is that? Particularly like the smell of ripe strawberries, broad bean flowers are nice too.
Can't stand the smell of elder
