While not a "favorite smell" something uniquely Disney is waking up before sunrise and wandering the resort whether it be All Stars, Pop Century or Ft Wilderness, and smelling the mosquito spray... it's not too overpowering or nasty... but it's there. :?

I agree with Tiki that there is a distinct smell in the Florida air. I always notice it when we stop at the Welcome Center on I75. It's even more distinct if you come down during orange blossom season.

It's typically my favorite smell, since it's pretty much the first thing I smell coming off the plane. Yeah. We'd hop off the plane, walk through the OIA (airport), get on the monorail to take us over the other section of the OIA and then exit through the sliding doors onto the Disney busses to take us to the resort! The first thing that hits me? The awesome smelling humidity of Florida. I guess that's what I get for being born in FL, i just love the smell.

This is weird, but I like the smell on Test Track when you're passing by the automatic arms painting the cars.

I like the smell of the Lobby of the Boardwalk Resort and the waterfall outside at the entrance to the Polynesian. Makes me feel happy and content.

I love the smell of the lobby in the AK lodge. It's just unique and amazing, especially near the fire pit.

My favourite smell of all is the confectionery shop on Main Street.
