I always love to doodle on myself with henna (mehndi). The smell of it reminds me of my childhood. I really love how smells can transport you to another time or a specific memory. The smells that transport me: jasmine flowers or gajra, mehndi, dolce gabanna light blue and christian dior's poison (perfumes of my loved ones), vanilla bean, korma, the smell right after it rains, chai masala, my ex's shampoo, the smell of a health food store (a.k.a my best friends house), amber and sandalwood, and the smell of almonds. I am sure that I am missing so much more, but these are the ones that i thought of. Does anyone else have smells that transport them to somewhere else?
