Isn't it something the way a fragrance casts the mind back to something that happened long ago with such vivid clarity? 

It could be a whiff of fresh cut grass, autumn leaves in the park, or the scent of a long-forgotten perfume that brings back memories of people or places.  

Just like our dedicated book preservationists, there is library for fragrance too. 

Leave it to the French at the French Perfume Library, a library that "preserves the scent of history." Enjoy!
