I've never had a sense of smell, now I know the term. Interesting.

most memories a human can recall are from smell. when you feel a familiar smell you first experience the feeling that you had (happy, scared, disgusted...) and after that you remember the facts/ situation when you first smelled that scent/odor

Player #27800101, I have a stronger sense of smell or I'm more sensitive to scents than the rest of my famil and it drives me crazy. Thank you for reminding me of all I would miss without it and to be grateful for it.

lily 21, not true. I have colds that take out sense of smell and therefore sense of taste, and I over eat anyway. I wish it was that simple!!!

I’ve had a ridiculously heightened sense of smell since I was pregnant (21 years ago), and it’s never diminished. I wish it would to ‘normal’ levels as some smells make me gag 😐

I lost my sense of smell & taste due to being hit by a car at 11 years old and suffered fractured skull and concussion, the driver got away with it even though it was on a dark evening, there was a power cut , so no street lights and he didn’t have his headlights on!! I

My college roommate had traumatic anosmia from a car accident that severed his olfactory nerve. When he went on dates it became my job to spray his cologne on him, because left to his own devices he’d use it by the quart 😂😂😂

Player #27800101, Cozzy 25, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve lost your sense of smell & taste. My late uncle lost his in world war 2. I’m going to say a healing prayer for you to get back your sense of smell & taste. 😎

Player #27800101, I am almost the same , I lost all my sense of smell following brain surgery and transphenoidal surgery ( through the nasal cavity), but still have about 10% taste. Thirty years ago , I can hardly remember the smell of most things.
