Any aromas that bring back great memories? Here's a few of mine. The smell of a just spent paper-hulled shotgun shell. The smell of Dad's fishing creel after a successful fishing trip. Could be trout, bluegill, bass...no matter. The smell of a bakery.
Visiting the home of my Italian grandparents. They owned a small apartment building, lived in one apartment, and rented two others out. When we'd arrive and enter the door leading to the main hallway and stairway, you could immediately smell what they had been cooking. Smelled great.
Also the smell of the diesel engines on the fishing boats that my dad would take me on to go fishing off Long Island. I always enjoyed that.
Also the smells of my Southern grandma's cooking (they lived in western Virginia), mainly breakfast, which was always special. The smells of patty sausages and bacon on the cast iron skillet, and fresh brewed coffee, every single morning.
