Whenever I smell axel grease or exhaust, whether it be on a busy freeway or standing next to an 18-wheeler, I immediately think of Big Thunder and it's trains. That water smell from Pirates and the musty smell of HM really gets me as well. Those and the smell of my hotel room are the small things I look forward to when I go to WDW.

nothing tells me that I'm at WDW until I have officially walked down mainstreet and taken in all 5 senses that Main Street Has to offer. The smell of the popcorn on the vending carts, and passing the confectionary. The smell of greasy ballpark food being served up at Casey's and the sweet smell of the waffle cones over at the ice cream parlor.! Man, I love Main Street...

The smell of all water rides.
The mist smell.
Main street.
The smell of all the shops. That is Disney for me. You can go to Disney Stores everywhere and you don't get that smell, but every shop in DW has that smell. I can't describe it but it's the best
The smoky musty smell of Big Thunder.
The smell of the sweet flowers everywhere.
My least favorite smell would be the Turkey Legs aka Swerky legs. We call them Swerky's because one year at Old Key West there was this ugly bird that looked like a black swan with a turkey gobbler. LONG LIVE THE SWERKY!!!

What really reminds me that I'm in Disney is the smell of Florida! lol I know it sounds weird, how can Florida have a smell? you may ask. Well I dunno, whenever I get there it just like wafts into me and I just get this feeling that I'm finally in the warm sunshine state of Florida!But now that I come to think of it, the smell of dull and old surroundings at the Haunted Mansion is quite memorable...:lol:
I completely agree. Florida does have it own scent, just as I'm sure some visitors to New Jersey would say that it does also. It's kinda like Florida has a scent but then Disney World has another scent of it's own. Or maybe just coming to Florida makes you think about Disney World so almost all scents are automatically pleasent.

Here's a little bit of a thread drift...hope ya'll don't mind.
I found a way to take a little bit of a EPCOT smell home with me.
When my wife and I were in Norway at World Showcase, we were exploring the gift shops.
They had some mens colognes so I sprayed the Tester bottle and my wife and I liked the smell so I bought a bottle.
I didn't use it until 3 weeks after our return home and when I put on the cologne...my wife's eye's got all big and she smiled this huge smile and shouted. "OMG....you smell like NORWAY!!! "
We had associated the smell with the place so we both got a big charge out of it....and it made our day.:lol:

this may sound wierd, but the smell of the air conditioning. everytime you go into a ride or in a building in hot sticky august weather you get this blast of cold air and the smell changes from place to place. Also all the smells, of the shops on main street, especellay the backery and candy shop yumm.

Morning
My favorite smell is when you walk out of the room early in the morning, while it's still cool out... and you can smell the flowers and the grass and the dew is covering everything... mmmm thats my favorite smell. Sometimes I go crazy and I swear I can smell it at home... haha

PJ ORourke, a very funny conservative columnist, wrote an article about Epcot. After riding the Universe of Energy ride, he thought Disney must have believed that the dinosaurs smelled "bad". When I went to Epcot after reading the story, I couldn't help but laugh when I "smelled" the dinosaurs.
Its a dilute smokey scent with a little touch of sulfur in it. Makes me laugh every time.

Something about the smell of Florida. I can wake up some of the mornings in michigan here, I wake up and the smells are almost the sames, and I think to myself, wow, this reminds me of florida, and then I just wish that I was back there...oh well, 2 months and I'm there...
