Right now for me, and this may sound weird, but it is the Build A Bear strawberry scent you can get put in your plushie.

Not because I frequently went to the Build A Bear Workshop as a kid. I only recently discovered their strawberry scent as an adult. But the scent reminds me of when I was a kid and I would play with my Strawberry Shortcake toys and it had that sweet strawberry scent.

Also, vanilla is always a classic nostalgic for me as well.

But what about you? What's your favorite nostalgic scent?

It is a nice and legit Mason jar (actually has the "Mason" embossed at the top).

I just dug mine out because I wanted to smell it; thankfully it was where I thought it was. After several years, it mostly just smells like strawberry slushee now but there are still hints of the original nostalgic smell.
