The weirdest one for me was the smell of the foam we used in a school production of Bugsy Malone. The Physics & Design students made the splurge guns, so I have no idea what was used.

The smell wasn't strong, but it got everywhere as most people were covered in it every night (not me - I was Blousey

) I smelled it quite distinctly in a sports/ camping goods shop a couple of years ago. The effect was immediate - in my mind I was in my school hall on a winter's evening, excited and scared. It made me feel so lightheaded I left the shop - I wish I'd tracked down what it was.

Funny - I had forgotten about it until I read Case & Spexxvet's high school related posts.

One of the weirdest things for me was when my dad had his last (fatal) heart attack. By the time I got to the hospital, he had already died. At one point I wanted to be alone with him to say goodbye and when I leaned down to give him a final hug, I could smell his cologne. He only ever wore one. I remember just lying there, breathing in his scent, knowing it would be the last time. I have never smelled it again, but if I do, I'll probably burst into tears just from the memory.

I hope you can smell it and just remember how much you loved him. But as I had tears in my eyes just reading your post I think you're probably right. Sorry for your loss.

There is an asphault plant right out side of the gate of Paris Island ( USMC boot camp ) Still to this day ( 20 + years ) when i have to work in an asphault plant a keep waiting for a Drill instructer to come around one of the tanks !!!!!!
And Jim I know what you meen about the granny smell , My Grand Mother made Drapes and Roman shades , and her house smelled of fabric ,
My mother ALWAYS had Channel #5 on , I can't smell it with out thinking of her

But never mind the remembered perfumes -- every now and then you come across somebody whose body odor is simply... wonderful. Straight from their whatever through your olfactory bulb to neocortex down to your frisky-bits. And trying to describe this odor, except to say "It's human," is foredoomed.

Given half a chance, I'd likely have loved that young girl in that doughnut shop, but no -- I was engaged elsewhere, recently married in fact. There was never a word between us, never a look, but oh did she smell goooood.

Congrats UG

Heh... no it wasn't

... doughnuts flavored with what I was smelling might be popular at orgies, but I don't think we'd ever see 'em in a family doughnut shop.

yeah, I can smell horny, too. that is.....i can smell when a woman is ....horny. i don't know if I smell horny. I can't smell myself.

It smells a little bit like chewed steak. trust me, i'm never wrong.

Some would smell like that... and a human-type musk.
