I always loved the smell of my dad’s freshly, refueled zippo.

Nothing like the feel of an over-filled Zippo sitting in your pants pocket as the lighter fluid leaked out and lightly burning your skin...

The smell of the fuel was terrific until they changed it to smell like cat urine. IIRC, it was because of a lawsuit alleging it poisoned some idiot who drank it.

My faithful Zippo was relegated to the junk drawer not long after that foul smelling lighter fluid came out.
