    A certain hair conditioner always remind me of a horse I used to groom and pamper all the time. Her name was Star's Sapphire. She was my first horse. I miss her. I would put it in her mane.

    Bacon reminds me of Sunday mornings growing up. Fried Chicken reminds me of our cabin in the redwoods. Coconut oil reminds me of my honeymoon in Fiji.

    Of course. Smells are like bags filled with memories.They open up nostalgia, aversion, hatred or any other feelings which we associate with it.

    Wet cement. It reminds me of going to work with my daddy when I was a kid!

    I only shave with an electric razor, but when I was in boot camp, you HAD to use a hand razor and shaving cream. Now, anytime I smell shaving cream, it reminds me of boot camp, and it probably always will.

    Strawberry jam reminds me of strawberry short cake the little doll I got for Christmas 1 year when I was in 1st grade(the 1st strawberry shortcake, she smelled so good)but then at the same time it takes me back to remembering my lil friend who around that time was murdered by her dad so I try to stay away from smelling that when I can. It brings good & bad memories. And that strong odor of clay reminds me of the playdough when I was little & what avon lipstick samples use to smell like when I was little.

    The smell of wood or Old Spice reminds me of my grandfather. The smell of tar reminds me of when I was a little girl being babysat at my friends house. They tarred the road out front of their house. Bug spray ... fishing with my dad.

    Lots of smell bring back memories for me, but the best ones are the ones that I haven't smelled since childhood. I had one the other day that I haven't smelled since I was 5.
