Natalie Dee of the webcomic Married to the Sea organized and categorized elemental smells into a periodic table. Sure, you can probably think of other smells, but they're really just compounds of these, right?

My only objections would be that I enjoy basement, garage, and skunk.

There are two Cb's - Cabbage and Cinnabon - not similar smells at all.

A vomity corpse smells worse than a dirty diaper? I'm not so sure. Then again, I've smelled rotten corpses in August, but none were vomity, so I cannot be sure.

gasoline is "pleasant"? In what country?

Purer gasoline, without detergents, without ethanol, etc. actually smells pretty good. My theory is that they started putting chemicals in it to make it unpleasant. When I was a kid gasoline smelled pleasant but in some smaller countries (or states) without emission standards it still does.
