Favorite smell at Walt Disney World

[JandT2014]

So many. The smell of the lobbies at AKL and the Grand Flo. The water on POTC and Splash. The smells of Main Street (even Casey's). The evergreen scent in Soarin'. The smells of The Land pavilion.

What is the scent of AK lobby? I don't recall a smell at all I feel like I'm missing out.

Chlorinated water on any of the rides...or the churro cart outside the country bear jamboree!

What about that Turkey Leg smell beckoning me to Frontier Land?

The plastic-type smell found in the queue and loading station of Spaceship Earth.

That smell is actually lithium grease...and yes, it is one of my favorites as well!

Beach club hotel lobby

Agree, I love the smell in the Beach Club!

Also, I loved the orange smell in the old Horizons pavilion.

The fire at SSE is our favorite. Every time we ride it, we lean forward as we come around the corner and breathe deeply as fast we possible. While recovering from hyperventilation for the next minute or so, we rate how strong the smoke scent was.

And, the MSUSA scents. So nice! You know you're in a different world.

I love the Flame Tree Bar B Que area smell. Every time I get near that place I get a whiff of that smokey goodness and my stomach starts growling and we have to stop for some ribs or chicken or one of those awesome pulled pork sandwiches.Mmmmm!

How about one of the most important smells of Florida......sun tan lotion in the morning!!!!!! Ahhhh I can smell it already!!!!!! Hahaha!!!!!!

Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain...the smells are similar but just a little bit different, but they both take me back to a simpler time. The Norway shops at the exit of Maelstrom are way up there too.

The aroma of cinnamon rolls from the Main Street Bakery

After reading a previous thread that mentioned the smell of oranges on Soarin', I started to wonder about ALL the different smells at Disney. There are so many from different parks that mean so much to so many people it really got me thinkin! What is your favorite?

I'll go with the popcorn just outside the train station on Main St. and the lobby of the GF.

The inside of the Settlement Trading Post in FW. That goes back to when I was a kid. Still love it!

The smell of magic in the morning...

My 3 favorites <3

Haunted Mansion, Burning Rome, Pirates

The most wonderful smell at WDW is when I am in line on a hot day waiting for a ride and the person in front of me forgot to shower and/or use a little thing I like to call deodorant. Better than that fresh cookie smell that they pump out.

And yes, the above has happened......unfortunately.

 

[Djali999]

Two less common ones... the smell inside Country Bear Jamboree (sawdust, old wood and grease from the AAs)
The smell inside the lobby of the original Journey Into Imagination (rose petals, pumped in)
Not to be persnickety but Disneyland has way better smells. Those buildings are old enough that when you go into, say, the dark rides, or the castle, you can just smell that they've been there for generations.

Apart from the Main Street Bakery, my favourity smell has to be of the Christmas shops both in MK and DS

 

[DisneyFans4Life]

It either has to be the smell coming from the Ice Cream Parlor on MS, or the nuts from the carts.
