    They all have wonderful or interesting smells.

    Blue is a wet watery smell

    Green is a leaf smell

    Yellow is a sunny, fresh air smell

    Orange is a fruity smell

    Red is a smell of roasting meat

    Brown is a woody smell

    although Tan or Light Brown can be the smell of rotten flesh, very unpleasant

    Black is a tar smell

    White smells of vanilla and flowers

    and there are many more smells of colors

    Lavender.

    Not only is it a specific color but lavender scented flowers from lavender plants are something you can actually smell without needing an imagination to do so. I consider the color a mingling of nature and an artist's pallet.

    Lavender. Soft purple colors in the plant world almost guarantees a nice smell.

    Green is my favorite color, but purple smells the best. Take a whiff.

    personally, i like a dark purple. it has a feminine softness to it somehow, and it has a mystery of boldness. it is pungent when it is a darker purple, and softer when it is lighter. it is a soothing smell, but still has a pleasant edge to it... which color smells the best to you?

    have a wonderful day!!!

    Orange. I love the smell of oranges, it's sweet and bitter. Fresh. Natural. Fruity.

    :)

  • Hmm...

    Pink-sweet and feminine

    Black - Mysterious and Musky

    or

    Purple - I guess a combination of what pink and black smell like

    since taste and smell are so closely sensed, i'd say whatever color whets my appetite

    Rich, dark red is my favourite - it smells like ripe raspberries, blackcurrant juice, fresh beetroot, fine old burgundy...yummmm...

    it depends on what the color reminds me of....brown mmm I could think brownies or chocolate which smell good, on the other hand I could think brown poopy diaper and be gross and sick to my stomach.
