Old Spice Aftershave will always remind me of my grandfather.

What smell brings back some type of memory for you?

Milk that's heated up...ahh it reminds me of my mom and how she would warm up milk at night for me so I could have a full tummy and go to sleep.

Toilet air freshener, some cheap brand with flowers, reminds me of a guy who always came over around dinner time, when I lived in an apartment with other students. He was just divorced and did not like to cook, so he very often called to ask if he could eat with us. Once I was too lazy to wash my favorite T-shirt, cause you had to wash it by hand, so I used the toilet air freshener. I sprayed it full and used a gigantic load, cause it was cheap stuff anyway and then when that guy came over he said: Sniff.. sniff.. is that you who smells so good?

Ripe fruit and diesel. The smell of harvest. I can smell it when I go back to my hometown during the summer because it fills up the whole valley. Takes me back to working, playing, and living hard. In the orchards before dawn, work until it's too hot to take it anymore, go home and have a swim to cool off, then do canning, have bbq steak for dinner and then tend the garden before heading off to bed. Every morning I would wake up to the smell and sound of tractors out my bedroom window.
