Thread: does anyone smell anything?

Yes.

If you can't, you are probably using the wrong nose.

i have before. a friend was commenting on her strawberry perfume, and i suddenly smelled it, it smelled really good

It's possible to smell within a dream but I can't recall ever doing it myself, period.
I'm going to do try doing that in my next lucid though, and "summon" a specific smell.

by reading this message your will subconciously summon the fart smell. muahahahaha

Yes, smelling is fun in a dream. Some of the more vivid memories I have of dream smells are things like coffee or fresh cut grass. Things that smell strongly tend to show up more often in my experience.

Yes and no. I don't think I actually smell anything, but I am generally able to understand what the smell is... like the scent skipped my nose and goes straight into registry. Usually anyway, I do smell them when they're important to the dream, suffocating stench in nightmares and the like.

No, I have shitty smelling in real life. Since this sense is pretty much weak, it is probably why I have 20/20 vision, yet everyone in my family wears glasses. Lucky me on the genetic anomaly or the body's survivalistic capability to compensate.

I don't smell in dreams either. It kinda sucks :/

yes, actually smelling is one of my most intense senses while lucid. i tend to find myself flying about trees and then swoop down to smell the blossoms on them. but i usually only experience the sense of smell in dreams intentionally when i try to smell something, i can't remember just randomly smelling things...

I got to smell some fresh, hot pizza last night. This was after cloning up another box for a random guy I met in the hallway, and before trying to eat a couple slices while holding the box and my sword at the same time.

Normally, however, I don't smell anything unless I focus on something with which I associate a certain scent.

I usually smell food. Unless it's a distinctive smell, though, I probably won't dream about it.
