What does a fresh new s̵i̵m̵ region smell like?

[Arduenn Schwartzman]

I (would) love the smell of a fresh new sim region in the morning...

If only I knew what a fresh new sim region actually smells like, that is.

Any suggestions?

Cool, crisp and clean, like after a storm... with a faint hint of kiwi fruit.

I imagine newbie Second Life avatars to smell of volcanic ash too.

The remains of the sandwich the Linden was eating before they delivered it to you.

Or, these days, possibly of clouds.

Nah. Noobs smell like Teen Spirit.

Ozone.

 

[Lindal Kidd]

Napalm.

Oh wait...I'm thinking of Maddy's place.

Like a fresh ocean breeze I would hope.

Last night  while I was winding down from working on a project that so far has taken over a year, I was wishing I could find a script to allow people to smell the scent of lavender since that is part of the theme. Then I remembered you can't smell anything online. 🙄

I had a good sniff this morning, and, oddly enough, it smelled a bit like algae, or the smell of an aquarium that needs a cleaning, or like river water on a hot day.

Maybe I shouldn't allow those grass textures to go under the water line.

I remember that video.. I don't think I want to know what " teen spirit " smells like 🤢

[Kimmi Zehetbauer]

Ok, is Linden Lab secretly working on a project to add smells to SL? Like the smellitizers Disney use at their parks? 🤣

Stand alone sims are surrounded with ocean and only 256X256m so it is totally impossible that you can't smell that salty air everywhere on a region.
Maybe mixed with some plywood and grass scents.

It smells like money being lit on fire 

[Paul Hexem]

Greed, shame, and bleach. 

[Mollymews]

with OP region then fresh mowed lawn, and paving cement

[Jolly Nova]

It smells like virgins because no one has done the dirties on it yet.

[Ayeleeon]

Like a brand new mobile home.

[Luna Bliss]

It smells of a slight tinge of anxiety...so a bit sweaty...as this goes along with "omg, a blank canvas, I hope another design will manifest eventually but right now I see nothing"!

[PermaRuthed]

Like the hanging pine tree car air freshener.
