In College, I Smelled Lysol Brand Cleaner in a Building

question 13

Essay

In college, I smelled Lysol brand cleaner in a building and immediately had a vivid, happy memory from my early childhood (age 3-5 in this case) of coming home to a bright, sunny kitchen where my grandmother was cleaning. What does your text say about the sense of smell relative to memory? How is smell different from the other senses and what do these differences mean?
