The smell of these!

I know this a weird one, but new license plates. My mom worked at the Dallas County Tax Office for over 25 years and she would come home smelling like the license plates they gave out everyday.

Hoppes No. 9.
We also had some sleeping bags that had a musty/dusty smell to them. We mainly used them when we went to the deer camp, so the smell and the memory are associated with extreme happiness.

Good: white shoulders perfume my mom wore, white citrus perfume my wife wears, smell of gun powder, smell of the woods after a light rain, smell of my sleeping bag I have had since I was sixteen, smell of an approaching storm.
Bad: smell of a house fire during and after, smell of burnt human, smell of a dog with gas, smell of a turkey or goose when your gutting them!

Government, like fire is a dangerous servant and a fearful master

I have to admit, I'm a little surprised at how many moms (mine included) wear/wore White Shoulders perfume.

It was launched just as WW2 was coming to a close. Initial promotion highlighted that it was 100% American made using American grown ingredients. Most 40s and 50s housewives could be depended on to be patriotic in their shopping choices. And it smells good, gardenias and jasmine, win/win.TomV wrote:I have to admit, I'm a little surprised at how many moms (mine included) wear/wore White Shoulders perfume.
