It's a magical gift of childhood resonance. It's why I love my parents, for providing such a sense of security that I can retreat to it in my mind whenever I need to. I also love the burned jet-fuel smell of airports. Again, childhood resonances. Hyacinths, on the other hand, I just enjoy smelling. Nothing from my childhood; just a wonderful fragrance. I wish I could write as poetically as you do :) Or maybe I just wish I had enough wistful childhood recollections which I could describe in romantic detail.
