Ever since, whenever we drop by a gasoline station, I would appreciate the smell of the gasoline pouring into our gasoline tank. At first I thought it was just me, but through the years I would hear a friend or two admitting that they too liked the smell of the gasoline. I wonder if this is also addictive like rugby.
Anyway, as for me, I don't really find ways to smell the gasoline; only appreciate it when I get a chance to.

have never really cared for the smell of gas. My boyfriend used to work at a gas station and his clothes always would smell strongly of it.

I like the smell too. But my parents told me that it's harmful if we inhale it too much. The gasoline is supposed to be odourless. Some chemicals is added intentionally to it so that we could smell it, and be able to know leakage ahead. The leaked gasoline is highly inflammable. It's also dangerous because of the risk of intoxication if we inhale too much of it without knowing it.

That's weird. What with the smell that you enjoyed inhaling it every time you gassed up? It's harmful and you won't get anything from it. Ever since i hate it. The odor of gasoline makes me sick. I feel dizzy and feel like throwing up. My eyes are also sensitive to it and i observed it every time the driver fuel up. My eyes become itchy and teary.

I know quite a few people will think it is a little weried.but I also like the smell of the gasoline when I was young,just in teenage year,but I will get a little dizzy if the smell is too exccesive.
It is becuase the chemical composition of gasoline or other fuel is aromatic group,like benzol,which can excite never to make you feels delighted.But they are harmful for your healthy,you should avoid your from smelling it,I think.

Oh, I actually really love the smell of gasoline, too! I guess I've always liked it, but I have no idea why. I love the faint smell of it, though. If it's too strong it's too much for me and I'd probably get a headache. So I don't think I would want to go sniffing jugs of oil haha. I don't go out of my way to smell it, either. But I like the smell when I'm at a gas station. I think sniffing it/trying to find gasoline to sniff could be bad for you haha.
