    Please don't think it is freaky!

    Next time, speak to her!

    Tell her you love and miss her.

    You will be glad you did, I promise!

    Yes it happens to me a lot. Back, in school I used to get the worst smelling perfume, and pore it on the back side of punks in the hallway. (when no one was looking). They would have to go all day to classes smelling like old lady's. It was really bad when they had the same class as me. It was really bad at times. They all were so embarrassed when they did find out it was them that smelled so bad. The fun part was no one knew it was good'ol me that did it..

    I got a good whiff of some perfume on a stripper when I was getting a lap dance. She smelled really good so I asked her what perfume she was wearing. I bought it for my girlfriend. I forget the name now. I wrote it down and bought it for my gal.

    Yes and it is really freaky.

    My great grandmother died when I was 8 and I still smell her perfume over 20 years latter, and I don't think they even make it anymore!

    Scent is one of the most deep-rooted memory triggers for humans. And even though our sense of smell is inferior to most animals, it is still very sensitive- particularly to things specially designed to be noticed; like perfume.

    I did. One time when I was in school, this kid sprayed cologne all down the hallway and it smelled like pine for like a week.

    well not me, but My mom once was in my grandmothers house, she heard my grandfathers favorite song in the radio, and she could smell his favorite cologne when he was alive..

    It is strange, and freaky. :S

    My mother wears that. Now whenever I see her and smell it I am going to think of dead people. Great.
