So for example, the smell of honeysuckle reminds me of being outside at my grandmother's house. Doesn't matter the source of the smell - could be a candle or in cologne - but I get this instant transportation back to being young and happy outside in the sunshine.

The smell of fertiliser and manure. It reminds me of the time when I could take vacations away from our urban cities and I could got to a farm stay in Australia

Old Spice.
My mind is instantly cast back to 10 year old me being questioned by the police (the detective wore it).
I was being asked about the activities that occurred while I spent time at my friends house across the street during the summer holidays, and the type of "Games" that we played. My friends dad was arrested the night before.

Guamúchil. It's a kind of tree with fruity pods with a very strong and distinctively smell to it.
When I was a kid, my fathe ruzed to take my brothers and I to a field filled with those trees to play soccer. Then he started a new job, and my brothers grew older and no one seemed to have more time for it, but I for me, those were some of the happiest days of my life, so, whenever I smell guamúchil, i remember those times.

The smell of blown out matches. My family always used matches to light the candles on the Christmas Advent wreath. Every time I smell a match, it takes me back to Christmas as a child and memories of my Mother.

Egyptian Lotus, my friend would wear the scent. When I would come through the city we would try to meet. After coffee we would share a long warm healing hug. Her scent would transfer onto my work sweater, I could still smell the soothing scent days after in the truck.

Diesel and grease. My grandfather worked in a tractor shop his whole adult life, and my dad has been a mechanic who worked on semis since I was a toddler. They always came home smelling like a garage, and those were the hugs I waited all day for.

Apple butter. My grandfather makes apple butter every fall for as long as I can remember.. And every time I smell it, it brings me back to when I was little and used to stand on a stool next to him while he peeled the apples. I would always eat the peelings, and he would always pretend to not see when I snuck an apple slice here and there...

Canteloupe, especially when it's a bit soft and slimy around the seeds. Reminds me of childhood, which I'm about to lose.

Probably very strange, but I used to be able to "smell" spring, when it was officially here.
Where I used to live, no one really had flowers, or enough of them to carry on a breeze. My bed was set horizontal to my window and when I was in middle school (11 years old and on wards) with my window open, I always smelled this... scent. I can't describe it. To this day I can't identify it. It was strong though, to me, and I just KNEW "spring was here".
My detection of it has faded in recent years to maybe 1 - 3 times instead of all the time (when spring/winter are fighting), but I still smell it and I'll NEVER forget it. If I could make a perfume or cologne out of it, I definitely would but I don't know how. I LIVE for that scent.

Cellophane tape. The good, not cheap kind. My mom would put me to work wrapping all the Christmas presents for the entire family (except my own) while she was at work. I spent a long time putting a lot of creative effort into it. Now days when I wrap presents I stick a piece of the tape right under my nose because I love it so much.
