like smelling books? i find the smell of some of them nice and stimulating, not all of them
i find myself picking up random books and sniffing them, i find the best ones to be the opaque or glossy printed pages

Only brand new ones with glossy pages. Ones with paper pages smell minging after a few years.
Not that I sit there sniffing them

I decorated the offices at the Solicitors my Mum used to be based at; We made floor to ceiling book cases with sliding glass doors for the senior partner's legal books/papers collection. Some were from the 1600's. I have to agree Steve, there's something satisfying about smelling an old book - smells like cigars and a time when men were men

I've not got visions of Steve and Rich sitting in a mansions library with a ladder in the background, sitting in Chesterfield Chairs smoking Cigars like proper men.

I have many Leather bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany

Does anyone else turn plates/crockery over in restaurants to see who and where they were made or is this just a Stoke-On-Trent thing?

Yes, only certain books though, higher quality paper and print types.
Special edition mags smell quite nice, like the occasional ones EVO produce.
The smell of latex gloves gives me full body tingles for some reason. Think its memory association from getting NOS'd at the dentist my brain thinks when it smells latex I'm getting high

Love the smell of GT85. Often spray it just to smell it.
