Xylene. I think it's maybe used as a paint thinner in some cases? I work in a lab where it is used daily in fairly large quantities (although not for thinning paint). I love it. Highly toxic tho lol.

As a vegetarian: the smell of a quality sausage being fried.

Stinky tofu. I know it's supposed to smell like an open sewer or other such insulting comparisons, but to me it smells like a delicious meal about to land.

Creosote, not the plant but the stuff they treat wood with. Smells like piers and amusement parks. Love it. Carcinogenic.

Chloroform

Oil, turpentine, Coleman Campfire Fuel

Ether

Old books/old libraries

Nicotine, and antifreeze..

Tobacco smoke

Sweat

Magic The Gathering cards, pretty sure it's some part of the lamination process. Under the house smell, earthy aroma that has stagnated for a few years. Moss covered valleys and crevices, basically where moss is so concentrated that it just jumps into the nose.

Diesel - not sniffing the container, but smelling burnt diesel in the air. Also the slightly putrid smell of a creek after it rains and all the gunk has been moved around and the sun has been blasting it and you can almost chew on the odour, it's that thick. I rather like that.

Durian. It smells sweet to me. Everyone else wants to vomit...
