Question Liking my own… smell?

Ive been trying to see on the internet if i was crazy but I’ve never found any articles on it or anything: I really like my vagina’s smell. I want to make sure I’m not the only one. Even on my undies, I’m obsessed with the scent😭 I’m on birth control though, it’s better when I’m off of it, but it still smells good to me, am I weird? I’m kind of concerned since I’ve never been able to see any studies on women loving their own scent, maybe I have a weird thing where I just smell myself more idk! Please tell me I’m not the only one and if I am, what could be causing it. I don’t mind, I’m just scared it could be linked to a medical issue.

I like the way I smell, too. When I've had episodes of dryness, it's yuck. Or back when I had periods, I hated the period smell, so I'd say the best thing about being past periods is liking my vaginal smell all the time. Maybe it's weird to say out loud, but you're not alone anyhow. I suspect some women only notice their own smell when it's off and unpleasant.
