I have a habit of smelling books. I dunno why. :oops:

Anyway. The booklet for avocado smells really crap. Compared to Photo quality stuff they stuck in Binaural and Riot Act

Anyone else as weird as that?

it's the type of paper they used, it's more like the pages in Vitalogy, thin, coarse, and not covered in gloss. Gloss is what makes it smell so good. :wink:

I first bought my copy of Ten in 1999, and I still remember the smell of the cd booklet the first time I opened it. I later found that exact smell in a Home Depot a few years later. It was the smell of industrial glue.
Scents stay with you for long times, its very strange.

Oh yeah, I smell the booklets too. I don't understand why I do it, but it's just fun to do.

I love the smell of a freshly opened CD. Don't care if that's weird

Mine smelled like cocaine, but I think that may have just been my retard friend using it as a mirror.

The smell of the poster in the Ten cd case is one of the most memory-filled aromas for me. Every time I open the case, I'm instantly returned to 1992.

someone once pointed out to me that old issue of playboy used softer paper on the centerfold spreads to increase the sensitory stimulation of the naked babes in the pics. Pretty cool huh
