My favorite scent is the rose smell from the original Imagination. Reading through the thread, I see that I'm not the only one who loved this smell. I didn't think anyone else had noticed!

I too found a lotion that reminds of Figment. I only use it on special occasions though, because I don't think they make it anymore.

Most of these have already been mentioned...

[original] Imagination - the rose smell
Horizons - orange crop [who doesn't remember that??]
Pirates and The Land - the water

the a/c in many buildings has a certain smell - no idea what it is and can't describe it...

The cleaner they use at the resort hotels and other areas has a very distinctive smell - not used many places but when I do smell it outside the parks it bring back so many memories...

I know there are plenty more destinctive smells from the parks that I can't remember right now!

Yes, it was in the white room. That is, if I remember correctly. My memory is a little shaky because I too was young. Bring back Imagination! Anyhow, I believe it was in the white room with all the carousel animals. I recall Figment painting them colors, but am not sure where the rosy scent came into play.

I too like so many of you love the smell of Burning Rome in Spaceship Earth. I also love the smell of the apple pie in Mickeys Philharmagic, and the distintive smell that hits you when you first walk into your Disney room. It really lets me know, your now at Disney!

Mmmmmmmmmmmm ! I forgot about that! Apples! I do remember on my last trip there how much Disney was incorporating smells into their attractions, and I gave them a ton of Kudos then! IMHO, I think it's awesome.

I can't wait until I get down there to experience some of these. I've never been to Philharmagic or Soarin (or Horizons for that matter), so I can;t comment on those smells. and the last time I was there was several years ago now, and I can't remember what the other smells are like (burning of rome, the bakery, the water, etc).

although, one smell I do remeber because it's so bad is the Stinkbug in "it's Tough To Be A Bug".

i actually like the skunk smell that they always use, now being used in imagination. if you close your eyes and think roasting coffee, the smell will make sense to you. my all time favorite smells have always been rome burning and the orange smell from horizons. i can't even tell you how many bottles of orange spray from citrus magic that i have bought to keep that smell alive. it's funny when i walk into a mall i often get a disney land pavillion smell. it the combination of chlorine and food. it will bring back disney all the time!

and yes the hot dog smell at stich has to be the WORST smell, but appropriate for the attraction.

I love the scents of Soarin', a long with the Turkey leg and the smell of popcorn as you enter MK.

I too found a lotion that reminds of Figment. I only use it on special occasions though, because I don't think they make it anymore.
My girlfriend buys that lotion, I think she gets it at Bath and Body Works and I think they still make it, it's still in the stores anyway because she's seen it recently. It was in the room with carrousel and Figment painting btw :)

Mr.Toad, could you by chance find out what it's called? I'm going to have to buy some for myself!
