I’ll start with the fact that I kind of like the smell of gasoline, and also bleach for some reason.

    I’m not a fan of the “new car smell”, for some reason. The “new computer smell”, on the other hand, is a rare treat.

      I’ve always found the new car smell to be very unpleasant, which makes sense since I’m pretty sure it’s just a bunch of chemicals off-gassing.

      I think the only reason that some people say they like it is because of the association with, you know, a new car.

      When I was a kid, my grandparents got a new car. I got sick in it all the time because of it. I hate that smell to this day - but at least I don’t get sick anymore.
