10 Best Smells In The World (3 of 6)

Bacon

For many people, the smell of bacon gives them nostalgic flashbacks to weekend mornings of a hearty and tasty breakfast with friends or family. Research shows that the lovable smell of bacon comes from the Maillard Reaction, the combination of sugars and amino acids being broken down during the cooking process.

Citrus

The slight sting and punch of freshly cut citrus is electrifying. Citrus smells are associated with tropical destinations and beautiful weather. Citrus smells can also bring alertness and energy boosts, which are definitely an added benefit the next time you cut a fresh orange or lemon.
