So I was reading Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments series (no I'm not gay...I think) and throughout the book she frequently mentions something smells like boy. So my question to you VT'ers (specially the women) is-WTF does 'boy' smell like? Is that even a thing? I'm just rlly curious about this whole thing so all answers= appreciated :)

I think the writer uses the "smell" just to convey closeness - salt and blood

soap and scent etc

I feel like some boys do have this weird, almost ammonia-like smell at the start of puberty. Ick. I feel like some girls are probably capable of it too, depending on what it actually is, but I've never noticed it in anyone older than like, 13.

My boyfriend doesn't have the 'smell', if he's stinky, he just smells like sweat. :P

not all boys smell like "boy" but i feel like the smell is impossible to describe. kind of like a mix of axe body spray and sweat? idk. there is a good "boysmell" and a bad "boysmell" like bad boysmell is like what u smell permanently in male locker rooms, and good is what their bedroom might smell like. idk

Now I wonder what ammonia smells like. I just hope the smell goes away in the end after puberty. And thanks for answering :)

Let me tell ya , ammonia stinks , BUT Everyone has different scents to there bodies. My friend Dale smelled like "boy" which turned out it was just his body scent in his room ( it wasn't a bad smell, it was just a bit odd )

So boy doesn't have to be a bad smell?

there's a particular "dude" scent that is actually pleasant. it's hard to detect unless you're obsessively clean and don't sweat very much. smellsgoodman

You need to keep clean to achieve such a scent...so difficult in most cases.

Right , it depends on they're hygiene and they're surroundings. Different people have different smells :) So "boy" doesn't always have to smell bad.

I don't know, t term "boy smell" sounds like something a pedophile would say. :lol:

my guess is - that smell between the crease of our thighs - adjacent to our scrotum. It's not a bad smell, but its a scent only boys/men have.

My cousin has a special smell. Don't know how to describe it, other than it's nice (maybe "musky"?). it's always brought comfort to me when he holds me, especially during an panic attack or meltdown.

I doubt Cassandra Clare is a pedophile, and she writes about 'boy smell' in her books so...

Boys smell like cum because we jerk off all the time!! jk
I think everyone has a different smell, depending on their lifestyle eg how much do they sweat, how often do they shower etc. Everyone is different!

I've never even heard of Irish spring or stetson black, and from past experiences, girls don't like old spice. What about axe? Lol

Irish Spring is a brand of soap/shower gel-I think has a nice fresh smell. I use Old Spice after shave and deodorant because it does not have a strong smell and it does not irritate my skin. Stetson Black has a woody leather smell, which I like and so do the ladies I am with. I've never tried Axe.

I get the Axe spray (it's disgusting IMO), but why does EVERY girl say boys smell like B.o? Are boys just so smlely baths/showers can't help? R there NO clean boys? (wondered in all seriousness)

But that it can be sour or sweet.
I kinda like the sweet musky smell on a guy... More than axe or cologne

Using too much spay or cologne is way worse than using none at all.
And some boys smell nice without it :D

I'm ok with the first, not the second. How'd we ever get girls if that's our smell? At least with B.O. girls feel like they're needed to get us clean smelling and washed and it makes them grow fond of us.

I think my sense of smell is greater because of my autism. Most of us have heightened senses. I tend to recognize people who are close to to me by their smell and associate them with it. Like I said my cousin has the best smell of anyone I know. I like to bury my nose in his pillow and smell his scent. I like my friend's smell too. Like musky mixed with bubble gum or something like that.

Females always smell strongly of perfume and hairspray and make up to me.

I either have a natural man smell going starting about an hour after I shower. If I'm sweaty than I smell like 2 lbs of sweat, which is odd because a girl once told me I smelled nice as I stood there dripping like a faucet.
