Original G1 smells & G1 Retro smells

[Bibinettepony]

I still remember the scent of my Tickle in my childhood. It was a particular smell (I kept on smelling her when playing with) I do hope one day to scent it again! But I do remember, so funny which souvenir we can keep

The G1s smelled great, but they didn't smell like vanilla . . . They smelled like chemicals.  But like, great chemicals.

Except the scented ones of course, like the Candy Cane ponies, etc.  But I didn't have any of the scented ones as a kid so I never got to smell them "new".  By the time I got into collecting, most of the scented sets I collected didn't have their scents anymore.

G3s didn't have the good-chemical smell, but they also had some scented ponies.  They were awful.  Thistle Whistle and Citrus Sweetheart were the worst, they made my eyes sting.  Chocolate Chipper smelled TERRIBLE, I don't know what that smell was but it was not cookies OR chocolate.  Butter Pop and the root beer one (blanking on the name) smelled "eh, okay" but their scents wore off extremely quickly.  To be honest I'm thankful. 

Most of the scents on the retro Rainbow ponies I find pleasant.  Starshine smells GREAT.  But some of them are a bit chemically or overwhelming.

But it could always have been worse . . .

Soda Float is her name.


Wait, Stinkor actually stinks?  Gross.

[LadyMoondancer]

Yes, and he purposely smells BAD. 

Oh yeah, Soda Float.  I still have her, she's very pretty, but her scent is totally gone.  Which is too bad because of all the scented G3s she had my favorite smell.

G3s... i LOVED the smell of coconut grove (despite hating coconuts)... never had any other scented ones though

[lovesbabysquirmy]

Coconut Grove was just TOO MUCH for me!!!  Oh I had to put her in the trunk of my car in cat litter for days so I could bring her inside to display without spluttering and choking on her smell.

I haven't noticed a particular scent on most of my G1s, but my Italians have always smelled different. Peachy is a lot stronger than Pinwheel was when I owned her. I'm not sure quite how to describe it, but I love it

Coconut Grove is my favorite scented pony. Though I did have
air her out. Never owned that MOTU figure but there was this one scratch n sniff. That was horrible.
