I never had a problem with the smell of gasoline at gas stations. Kinda liked that. So one more data point for chemists liking gasoline smell I guess?
To be fair, as others mentioned, there are much worse smells in the lab. I used to work with benzocyclopropene and that has a very strong smell (although at least it does not tend to stick around). I probably would still recognize that smell immediately (that and certain organostannanes).
