My husband does the same thing!

Supplies of TCP have dried up for some reason, and prices are fetching high prices for the few remaining bottles.

The same happened with Talcum Powder (not baby powder) just before it disappeared for good.

I think mine is oddly specific - toast under a gas grill

When I was a kid my great grandparents used to look after me during the summer holidays. They didnt have a toaster so my great nan would do it under a grill 🖤

The aroma of petrol immediately takes me back to my dad refuelling on the way to visit my grandparents, and the inevitable travel sickness that would occur with me sat in the back seat.

The smell of sun cream.

It just reminds me of holidays when I was younger.

That's also mixed with a bit of excitement thinking about planned holidays to come!

Cigar smoke and talcum powder. Those two meant I was about to spend an evening at my grandparents in my dressing gown and slippers. There isn’t much I wouldn’t give up to be back there.
