Why do marker pens smell so good?

[kwerk]

Why do marker pens smell good to humans? There must be a reason for it? Do they smell good to other species, like cats?

And why does petrol smell quite nice but kerosene smells bad?

I also like the smell of petrol, not sure about marker pens - maybe I just have the ones that don't smell very nice though.

Sniffs pen, sniffs again and again, they’re not as good as they used to be. I do love the smell of a vintage Tipex.
