To go with this weeks theme, does anyone have any smells that remind them of their childhood? For me, it would be this perfume that I have, which is the scent that my great-grandmother used to wear. Every time I smell it, it reminds me of being at her house.
My kindergarten teacher used to wear this strong and specific perfume, so whenever someone wears it I instantly remember it.
Not a specific scent, but there are those weird moments where a smell makes me remember a specific day and/or event
Next cigarettes
Tiger balm
Musk
And some other stuff
I had to do work experience at my Primary school and when I went into the hall during lunch time that smell took me right back.
Gosh, so many.
A certain deoderant makes me think of drawing Star Wars characters in my old, old, old bedroom when I was tiny
Bump!
Do you like it when smells remind you of your childhood?
Probably playdough
That’s very true. Playdough and crayons.
Yes!
Certain soaps remind me of when I was a teenager
I remember when I went to Greece on vacation for the first time, when I was four… there were certain foods and drinks they served at a wedding that stayed in my memory. When I went back, years later, those smells reminded me of that wedding.
TCP, Iodine and Cough drops. They remind me of when I was eight
Sometimes there’s a certain smell that’ll take me back to when I was young. How come I’m never able to identify where it’s coming from? I’d make a candle out of it if I ever found it, try to sell it, never sell out of it, I’d probably only sell one.
Crayola crayons and bubble tape!
Clay!
Hmmmm…yoplait whipped yogurt.
