Also, certain scents have remained associated with some people, like Johnson's Baby products for my kid, cake baking in the oven with my mom, fresh chandan-bata with my mamabari, scent of new books with my dad, the scent of jui-phool with my dadubari in Jhargram, smell of jaba-kusum oil with my dadu, smell of snuff/nosshi with my other dadu....the list goes on!!<BR/>And of course, like a proper sniffer-dog, i always associate good food with food that smells good!!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04895976730330746174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-79848645784566588152008-07-26T09:45:00.000+05:302008-07-26T09:45:00.000+05:30I guess to each his own.

To me its the smell of the first rain soaked earth, the smell of a new oiled cricket bat and the heady natural smell of my mother after she had had her bath. Hmmn!!

The smell of bath water heating in a special copper vessel, fired with wood, in the early hours of the morning; the smell emanating from the kitchen where the "amti" is being set in motion with a kadhipatta and green mirchi tadka; the smell that pervaded around when my grandmother lit the "ghee niranjans" for pooja; the special "Pune" smell that begins once you have traveled up the ghats into a drier area, leaving sweaty Mumbai behind. <BR/><BR/>Just too many smells to mention and many more memories....Ugich Konitarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901335427613806798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-74450619862658793482008-07-22T04:01:00.000+05:302008-07-22T04:01:00.000+05:30I vividly remember the smell of earth after the fi...I vividly remember the smell of earth after the first shower,it was heavenly!I also loved the smell of old books.lopahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165334793515601254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-69569235371622812502008-07-21T21:45:00.000+05:302008-07-21T21:45:00.000+05:30Petrol - I am loving it.Armpit...he he he;)Petrol - I am loving it.<BR/>Armpit...he he he<BR/>;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
