Walked by a guy smoking a cigar yesterday and, unfortunately, took in its smell full force. It was like an electric bolt hit and I was a kid back in the late '60s with my dad as he smoked cigars (and cigarettes) before quitting a few years later. It was amazing how that one strong whiff brought that memory front and center in my mind. It stayed with me for most of the day.
thats amazing how smells are also a part of memories, not just visual, smells can also bring back old memories
the smell of the school cafeteria making lunch brings back pleasant memories, sometimes it smelled like cakes, cookies, baking in the oven.
