Strawberries is one of my favorite scents. So is vanilla.
I wonder if its common for siblings of food allergy kids to be kindof resentful? I'm allergic to chicken and it always really bothered my brother. He'd complain to people about how we never eat chicken. Every once in a while when my mom would make it (and I'd have something else) its all anyone wanted. We'd pray and they'd go straight for it and not want anything else, lol!
Carnations are my favorite smell. They smell a bit like cloves.
I love fruity scents. The flowery scents make me sneeze.
Sandy Fisher - probably a shallow response would be Joy by Ives St Laurant. My favorite smell is not specific it is simply fresh and I do not know if one can capture that. I live in the winelands area of Cape Town and in early autumn where we are now there is a crisp fresh fragrance in the air - it is a fragrance of promise.
I love the scent of burning leaves/autumn. I love fall and all the smells that come along with it.
I also love the smell before/after a spring rain.
Congrats on the ARC for Scent of Rain, I'm sure it'll be a hit when pubbed, Kristin.
My favorite scent is peach. There's just a fresh, fullness, a completeness about that smell.
Secondly, peonies have a soft, but not over-powdery scent that begs to have their velvety petals touched.
Thirdly, puppy ears. Very young puppies have this smell I can't quite define. I'll detour at a pups-for-sale sign simply so I can cuddle one to my face and sniff it's ears.
Next, because thinking of puppies makes me think of babies, I do love the smell of clean baby or toddler skin. Makes me want to laugh to think of it.
I'm thrilled you have another novel coming out so soon. I'm looking forward to reading it.
Favorite scents?
Citrus is probably at the top.
And Vanilla.
OH! And fresh laundry just off the outside line (except during hay fever & pollen time, lol)
Freshly ground coffee....Yummmm. :)
I love the smell of fresh cut grass. It smells so clean, fresh and if the grass was just cut then it's gotta be sunny out :)
I have many for many different reasons. But my favorite is that smell in the air just before it rains. It's usually really faint, but I can always smell rain coming. And it's not to be confused with the scent of when it IS raining or right after it rains. Those smell different.
favourite scent...i love lavender...it's fresh and simple.
thanks for the chance to read your latest novel, kristin :)

Wow, these are all great and I can smell them as you're describing them. Okay, except the puppy ears, but I totally buy it. I'm thinking of the fatty little back of the neck on babies. I love that smell!
I love the scent of my husband's cologne, the aroma of fresh-baked cookies (or any dessert for that matter), and the fragrance of roses in my back yard. Ahhh... :o)
And Kristin, this has got to be your best cover yet! So different but intriguing...can't wait to read it!

There's a certain type of grass that reminds me of when I was an itty-bitty and living in Rhode Island. Once in a while I'll smell it and savor the moment. Wish I knew what it was because I'd plant it in my own yard!
Chocolate chip cookies for sure! But if we're talking in the perfume realm - I prefer fruity over flowery - like Philosophy's Falling in Love.
So many to choose from.... I do love how a home smells on Thanksgiving day when all the roasting and baking is done...mmmmm, comfort smells, for sure!
I love the scent of gardenia's. It's so loveley, and my mother wears the lotion, so it always reminds me of her. And fresh cut grass. That always reminds me of good summer memories. :)
Thanks!

I am allergic to floral smells so have to go with fruity smells! Love your book cover and thanks for a chance to win an ARC.

My favorite scent is honeysuckle, but I've never really thought about why it's my favorite. Maybe because it reminds me of spring, and spring is my favorite season.
Congrats on the new book! :)
Jackie, I'm so sorry you're allergic to florals!! Honeysuckle, I just LOVE that scent.
fresh baked bread or chocolate chip cookies gooey from the oven
the smell of burning logs in my fireplace
the smell of a baby after a bath
my hubby's aftershave

Ooh, Love that cover!
I can't choose just one...
The smell of coming rain and the smell of the freshly washed desert, especially the creosote bushes—automatic relaxation!
Gardenia, hyacinth, freesia, jasmine and lavender—oh, and the smell of the citrus blossoms wafting through my office window—immediate happiness!
The ocean…the real ocean not the artificial fragrance—reflection time.
My dad’s homemade two-day spaghetti sauce.
