The smells of Disney

Postby The Maher Family » Tue Jan 26, 2021 4:18 pm

Smell never gets it’s just deserve. The word “smell” gets an unfair negative connotation; but not at Disney. Ohh the smells, so many wonderful, reminiscent, exciting and delicious smells. With a single word I can conjure in your mind these amazing scents: popcorn, waffles, the bakery and ahhh churros. I can whisk you away to a place: the water in pirates, the scent of the Polynesian village or flying over orange groves. While most of the world at times can stink; Disney always smells like happiness. What are your favorite Disney smells?

When walking into Magic Kingdom the smell of popcorn is the best. Smells can both create and spark incredible memories. When we make waffles at home and use just the right amount of vanilla, the kids always say "it smells like Disney in here!" Also, love the smells on Pirates!!

The smell of Pirates made me cry in Feb. 2020! It was my first time back in Disney World in 22 years!

The smell of the Florida morning air at the start of a RunDisney race (3:00 - 4:00AM).

My favourite smell has to be when I walk in to the attraction Pirates of the Caribbean and smell that wonderful Pirates smell every time I visit the Disney Parks! :D

So hard to pick just one favorite smell! I love the scent during the Taj Mahal scene in Soarin' and the smell during Flight of Passage.

I think of the popcorn flavored jelly beans for some reason which makes me almost gag, but yes, fresh popcorn for sure.

I absolutely love the Poly Lobby, it's what believe heaven will smell like!
Flight of Passage is also a win, along with the Land Pavillion. The Disney smells are some of the main things I remember, true magic.

Honestly I can relate so much. I'm obsessed with really obscure smells that take me back to Disney lol. For example, I'll be entering a store and think to myself "Wow! This smells like the entrance to Spaceship Earth!!!"
I know, it's weird. But some of them really remind me of being a kid. :D :D
