I happen to live in Orpington (where Gus used to live)....and my place smells

God no. Just based largely on EU legislation (but not the odour part).

Hangleton - heady stink of soiled nappies in the park
Hove - the perfume of joss sticks and kebab shops
Kemptown - poppers
Bear Road /Elm Grove - the smell of death and decay
Hanover - beardy hipster farts
Falmer - the comforting odour of English green pastures mixed with puked up balti pies and lager
