I became more used to it, it doesn't bother me so much now. But in the past it was very bothersome.
Perhaps, since I have managed a full service gas station and have owned and drove carburetored cars, gas smell never has bothered me. The worst smell ever for me was when they first brought out unleaded fuel being used with the firstcatalytic converters. These cars produced a powerful scent of rotten eggs.
