    [Question] Scents on Soaring?

    You smell things on Soaring over CA?

    What do you smell and when?

    Are there other rides that do this?

    From my experience, you can smell the pine trees and the orange groves during Soarin' Over California.
    Merrily on our way to nowhere at all.

      Honestly, I think it's the same scent sprayed a few times during the film. It's supposed to smell like oranges, pine trees, and the surf. The scent itself pretty much captures all those scents in one, which is why it's so convincing with the different scenes.

        I think there's also a "salt air" smell when they get to Monterey

          Pickled ginger in the sushi bar in Monster's, inc

          Vanilla in the cookie box in Heimlich's.

            Pine over the russian river scene, oranges over the orange grove and "surf" (ocean) over ocean...

            the problem is Disney uses one nozzle, and it doesn't purge between the scents, so you usually smell the oranges during the pine, and the pine during the ocean, etc...

            whenever they plus this ride, they should just run more nozzles which only hold ONE scent each to keep this from happening.

            I think they also have a problem with the scent captured in the tubes, which is why trying to purge them probably won't be enough to fix this effect.

              I never knew this. Thanks for the info. Too bad you can't smell the scents when watching youtube.

                Oranges, pine trees, and the ocean breeze.
                I can smell it now.

                      And long before Disney ever piped scents into rides there was the boysenberry smell piped into Knotts Berry Tales.

                        I've heard it said that some of the restuarants pipe out food smells to augment the natural ones that you'd smell as you passed.

                        Over on the East Coast, we also have a fire smell in Spaceship Earth and skunk smell in Journey into Imagination. The orange smell from Soarin' is the same one that was used in Horizons from 1983-1999.

                          I agree with pinkertonfloyd that the smells just end up mixed together. I hope they will put in separate nozzles when they revamp this ride.

                            They should pump out smog smell during the part when you're soaring above the freeway

                                    And if you're smelling sweaty feet, I suggest you ask for row 1 next time.

                                      The Soarin' scents are kind of DCA's signature smell to me. I just love it
                                      Also... the cologne, please find out what it's called. I must have it!
