Maggie once said I smelled like Taco Bell. I apologized. She countered, no, it’s good.
I tell my husband he smells like chicken, and he’s always perplexed bc we haven’t had chicken
This is not a thing that happens to me.
In part, at least, because my wife is very into perfume. She talks about different “notes” in various perfumes and is basically wearing perfume constantly.
As such, the only scent I might associate with her is citrus (a popular note in morning scents).
Now I’m wondering if there’s any fast food restaurants I might smell like. Maybe Burger King? I don’t know.
I fix gas pumps so I always smelled of gas when I came home. My ex-wife says she can always tell when her new husband filled up the car on his way home because of that old familiar smell. Not that it’s a bad thing, we’ve been divorced so long that it’s a memory of happier times in our youth.
That’s true love right there
