I'm always interested to find out what other people dream about. It seems to vary for different people, from people who say they never dream, to people who dream vividly.
As for me, I'm prone to very vivid, detailed dreams. Perhaps the oddest thing about them is that I'm rarely me, and often it's more like I'm watching a movie that being an active participant in the goings on. Often the stories are very detailed, science fiction-esque, and apocalyptic, which is slightly odd, as sci-fi and fantasy take up very little of what I read and watch.
A dream I had recently that typifies some of the odder ones I've had was one where me and this woman were investigating whether we were truly in reality or in some other dimension, as for some reason we had some suspicion that something wasn't right with the way things were. Towards the end of the dream, I found her crying, and on asking her what was troubling her, she told me she figured it out; that it was a dream, and that when I woke up she'd die ( or rather, cease to exist ). I promised I wouldn't, that is was worth staying asleep to keep someone alive - and of course, promptly woke up. My dreams are very vivid and lifelike, and that one left me a little disturbed ( did I kill a dream-person? )
Of course, fragrance often comes up in my dreams, from silly dreams ( an entire fragrance mall, no less, suspended about a mile up in the air in a giant tree ), to the creepy ( an oud fragrance that literally began to reconstitute a jungle around me as I wore it, snakes and bugs included ), to the borderline useful ( waking up with a specific bottle and/or note combination to find my dreamed-about fragrance ).
So, what goes through your head when you're asleep?
