Not saying it’s the best smell(some may disagree) but is there anything more pungent to the human hooter than weed? Even outside it lingers for ages over a wide area.

Let’s just ask.

Weed smells strong due to a combination of chemical compounds, primarily terpenes and volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which easily evaporate into the air. This strong scent is an evolutionary adaptation for the plant's survival and is often an indicator of quality.

Well a walk from top to bottom of Fore Street in Totnes can leave you feeling good without any intervention other than breathing in the ambience.
We call it blow town, a constantly friendly happy place to visit with good small scale festivals and artisan shops.

We visited in August with Alistairs Aero wafting the kaftans - not as pungent as our next stop in Glastonbury though!

The smell of the modern stuff is way more powerful than I remember from my friends when I was young.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

When I get into my 4/4 the roof on, so that the smell of leather mixes with that of the mechanics.
The first drops of rain in summer on a dusty road.
A good malt
When I open the case of my Martin D28 and it smells so wonderful of rosewood at first.

The interior of a Morgan varies according to the brand of leather, and probably the hood. Mine also have the lingering aroma of Danish oil on the floorboards.
