They say that scents make you remember the past, but sometimes, for me, when i’m remembering the past, i feel the scent.

Scent is a word describing what our olfactory sense picks up off of an object, it is normally a evaporated chemical mist which, while light in the air, is detected by our noses and formed into a message for the brain, this can at as an instinctive warning to some creatures and can also be pleasing and have other, hormonal affects on the smeller.

A scent is a smell. You pick it up with the organs in your nose and mouth. They can be of any variety, given off from objects and found as particles in the air. Poo smells bad.

Smell

The overpowering stench of death filled the forest. Dead bodies littered the floor. Birds, shrews, mice, even badgers, you name it, it was dead. She walked along the dappled path until she came to a clearing. She burst through the bushes- and shrieked.

the smell of you fills my nostrils. it reminds me of love. it reminds me of the way you wrap your arms around me… and whisper in my ear sweet nothings. the sweet breath on my nape, the mild cologne on your neck. i wish i could be with you now and smell you once more.

A smell, an odor, a fragrance, like perfume or a beautiful rose. Detected by olfactory glands in your nose, I think. It rhymes with “cent”, which is another thing I like. A scent can be good or bad, but everyone needs good scents.

"this smells nice," she says. She picked the flower up from among the bushes and gently shoved it towards him. "I like it."
"So should I take that as a hint?" He smiles and takes hold of her hand. They walked up the sidewalk and into the house.
"It's a nice place."

is the way I know you are there in the morning. I love the way you smell and feel when you are lying next to me… I just want to stay here forever, but alas I must get up and leave for work!

They say our sense of smell is the strongest of the five. A single scent triggers more memories, conjures more emotions, and our recognition is nearly instantaneous. A library book becomes a musty reminder of the attic in your childhood home. You feel a familiar swoon as you pass a stranger wearing your ex-lover's perfume.

Our strongest sense, but always in retrospect. Holding so much of where we've been, what we already know... If only a scent could teach us something new.
