So I may be walking out to the bus, or helping a customer at work, and catch a whiff. Not a bad one, just of someone or something's scent.

Will I remember these if I smell it again? They say scent is the most powerfully memory-associated of all the senses. And that it is also the most neglected. It is so ephemeral. You become quickly tired of strong ones, but can't get enough of the tease, the slightest waft of an almost-remembered association.
