Gasoline smells good? For me it smells awfully, and gives headache and nause
I am particularly fond of the partially unexploded gasoline mixed with exhaust smell that a properly tuned carbureted engine produces. I suppose it reminds me of my childhood, having been to many car shows.
Is it good for me? Probably not. But would I miss it if I could never smell it again? Absolutely.
Because:

I never thought about it subconsciously being associated with cooking or cooking oils. I guess it makes sense?
Also fragrances & fuels.
It depends. For me, the oil we used for fondue tabletop burners gave me nausea. Carbonated smells (also the proximity with sugar or other comestible compounds ?) might give gasoline this acceptable odor, but the rest is just so strong my brain aches. It might also be a reason for my car sicknesses.
Wait… it’s not supposed to?
Diesel better
It’s a symptom
