Favourite smells at WDW

[seplad94]

I'm new to this board and this may have been asked before but I thought I'd ask anyway. Saw a thread yesterday about people's favourite music around the parks and got me thinking about favourite smells around WDW as well. Mine personally is the smell of the Contemporary! Any others?

 

[Walter Elias Disney]

Main Street Confectionery...Magic Kingdom
Main street does have vents at street level that blow scents of whatever your passing by onto the street. It was actually one of Walt's ideas. Main street does have scents pumped into the street from the Main Street Confectionery. In the summer, you can smell vanilla and Walt wanted peppermint coming out at Christmas time. This is not done as a marketing ploy, however. It is done in the spirit of Disney, providing you with the best possible experiences in sight, sound, and in this case, smell.

Throwing the smell of Rome burning on Spaceship Earth in there as well

 

[LAKid53]

Big Top Souvenirs, the lobbies at GF & WL, Morroco

 

[Courtney6682]

The lobbies of OKW and the BC .....mmmmm

 

[Otterhead]

The dank, chlorine wetness of Pirates of the Caribbean.
The fireplace & wood scent of the Wilderness Lodge lobby.

 

[Schneewittchen]

Churros, musty ride water (PoTC, Splash Mountain, IASM) and Rome burning (Spaceship Earth).

 

[DocBuck]

PotC old water smell for me! Or the kind of engineering, oily smell around Thunder Mountain

 

[Captain Barbossa]

The monorail (yes I just said the monorail), the spiced rum and gunpowder/sulfer smell in POTC, the WDWRR when you go through the tunnels, Spaceship Earth, DINOSAUR, and Muppet Vision.

[drwadadli]

The smells at Pirates of the Caribbean, Spaceship Earth, passing under the trains as the main gate of MK, entering the Poly or CR

 

[Stryker927]

Pirates of the Caribbean, the Polynesian, the Mexico Pavilion, Starbucks/Bakeries

 

[zurgandfriend]

The sulfur smell (and taste) of the water.

 

[maroonmol]

Literally any of the candy stores in WDW.

 

[Sans Souci]

The Beach Club lobby. I've found "Rainkissed Leaves" shower gel from Bath and Body Works is a pretty good dupe.

 

[LeighM]

I have to second Big Top Souvenirs!! The first time I ever walked into that space, I knew I had found my happy place. My second favorite smell is the lobby of Grand Floridian. I have the same scent they use in my house

 

[danyoung56]

The shops of Norway all have the same perfume-y smell.

 

[Otterhead]

the spiced rum and gunpowder/sulfer smell in POTC,

Spiced rum in PoTC? Is there a spot that smells like rum? I've never noticed it, but I'll have to keep a 'nose' out...
