Canned refried beans.

Extreme female BO, seriously, that's disgusting.

 

Male BO on the other hand...

I stopped eating bacon around 2014, so I fucking hate the smell of it.

From the top of my head (literally) most of the hair conditioners and such. Why they have to smell so artifical and unnatural?  I bought some new beard grooming balm couple days ago, and the stench is appaling! Like some sort of industrial cleaning chemical 

Yea, most hair products for men have this spicy smell. It's known as a "manly" smell, but personally I hate it. 

I love smelling like fruits and flowers

I can't stand the smell of melted cheese.

Marijuana.

I live in Colorado (a state where it's legal) so I get to smell a fair amount of it and I absolutely hate it. Smells like something died if you ask me.

Cigarettes and Weed. That's the biggest issue I've been running into with online thrifting. People who smoke and don't disclose that. I've gotten shirts and stuff that just reeked and takes multiple washes just to get it out. If I can

I find the smell of eggs to be pretty bothersome, especially when someone's boiling them.

• Onions
• Skunks (but I still respect them as living creatures)
• Cigarettes

I think some sort of chicken stock. One time I was a bit sick in the stomach, and smelling that stuff only made it worse!

Also dead animals.

[ExplosionMare 21,317]

Yogurt. That's why I can't even stand to try it. My sister used to eat it all the time growing up and I couldn't stand it!

[Tao 8,845]

musky body sprays of any kind.
Pot smells.
Heavy cigarette smoke on people.

Cooking Fish smell of anykind

[Raskolnikov 1,716]

Ammonia I think, not because I inherently hate it but I associate it with disease and dead animals and I guess it brings back old dread. I always picture cat corpses in my head...

Also wine actually, hate the smell just by itself but also my parents' PC reeked of it from their drinking.

Canned tuna.  Can't even be in the same room with it or I'll start retching.

 

[ZiggWheelsManning 13,111]

The scent of cows or animals coming from a farm

Vodka mixed with water in a spray bottle is good for destroying odors. Also good for disinfecting stuff.

Very good to know I will definitely try that

I was thinking exactly the same!

It also gets into my clothes and it's disgusting, I can't even stand any objet related to cigarettes, If I touch something related to them, I have an urge to wash my hands.

And the odor after sniffing someone else's smoke inhibits my ability to smell anything else in 30 minutes... It's disgusting.

Cigarettes. The smell of tobacco smoke permeates everything it touches. You will smell like cigarettes, your clean clothes will smell like cigarettes, your electronics will smell like cigarettes, your pets will smell like cigarettes, the dust in your house will reek of cigarettes. Not a fan of smokers.

No hot takes here, people are valid, but gosh, growing up in smoke heavy countries and with smokers has given me a strangely pleasant experience with cigarette smoke that seems to be contrary to the common opinion here... it just reminds me of old friends, or diaspora friends of my mum's. Or public places... I must be too heavily conditioned from chronic secondhand exposure into liking the smell lol
