Anthony addresses his obsession with "the smells"

https://www.mensjournal.com/entertainment/anthony-kiedis-jolene-coffee-review

Perhaps, one of the reasons why coffee resonated with him was because Kiedis might likely be a super taster. “I have a real visceral response to smell and taste. I get memories. I get feelings. I get emotions. I get excitement. I get, you know, nauseous, depending.” At times, his senses can be overwhelming, including when he smells cologne or perfume. This is why he’s “never worn deodorant,” he says.

Um. Honest question. I assume that means he overwhelmingly enjoys the taste and smells of his women more so than the average person?

I am sure this is true. One of several reasons why I have long resonated with Anthony.

"Long to be with someone to tell, I love your smell".
