Smells that remind you of something...

Ok - I fully admit to thinking about the strangest things sometimes but here goes....

I've just been out to pick up some lunch. While I was out, there was a really strong smell of "Play Doh" and it just reminded me of nursery school.

So that got me thinking - do any of you have smells that remind you of something??

Right - I'm off to wait for the men in white coats:wah: :wah:

Lavender always reminds me of my Nan, when I was little and used to stay with her, we used to make lavender pouches to keep in the clothes drawers :-6

I like lavender too - it reminds me of an old friend of my mums.

I actually hate the smell, think it was overkill with so many pouches everywhere

the smell of chlorine reminds me of this house we used to live at- it was on a lake, yet we spent all of our time at the pool!

I opened a bag of Jersey Royals that I bought about 3 weeks ago. Some had gone bad. The smell was just like pig muck at the bottom of a sty.

Angel Face face powder and Coty lipstick remind me of my grandmother.

Certain flower sachets and hairspray remind me of my other grandmother.

Chicken frying....my great grandmother

Interaction with my Dad as a kid was almost non-existant, but he did collect the cards inside boxes of PG Tips tea from the factory he worked in for me. I used to get a handful every night and I'd stick them in the books they issued to collect them in. I had so many, I filled books for my mates too. Each card was impregnated with the smell of the tea. This thread came to mind this morning as I caught the smell of a teabag which evoked that rare positive memory of my Dad.
