Hi! What is your favourite Spring-time smell?

[Faith33]

Lilacs... virtually every yard in town has them, it's the official smell of spring around here.

I love the smell of Oncidium Sharry baby! If you don't know, it's an orchid that smells like chocolate..maybe some vanilla mixed into that as well. It's such a gorgeous plant and it usually blooms during spring or fall. The smell makes me euphoric!

I love the smell of the rising sap which starts in February here. It's a very very subtle smell, which I notice more at night.
Then every single Spring flower, but Primroses smell beautiful.
Cut grass as well.

I live in a rural area that edges into the backcountry, in a mountain valley in western Canada. If I walk into the woods, I'm in one of the stands of birch, hemlock, cedar, douglas fir, and pine trees. Among the trees, you walk on brown-duff ground imbued with mingled sweet-scented gums, oils, and resins. The ground is sometimes dotted by fiddleheads (young bracken ferns) growing from it, but the mild north-facing slopes grow thimbleberry and wild ginger (whch has it's own scent that it adds to the rest).

Closer to the door of my house we've got a big lilac bush/tree growing - and that's a pretty strong scent while blooming.

Pollen on the evening breeze ...

I like the scent of rain.

orange blossoms.

Acacia trees. They seemed to be more prevalent when I was a kid. I haven't seen one in years. The scent is still in my memory.

On a 4.5 mile walk today with the dogs we came up to some large blue spruce in big field and ahhh... the smell was so divine. The dogs loved it too.
