Rain, grass, dirt. These scents can invoke an intense reaction to a person, especially somebody who is allergic to so many of the scents that she loves!  But oh, do I love those scents. As the seasons change and summer's musky, dry heat switches to the crisp smell of wet, decaying leaves of fall, I'm always amazed by how much a single scent can bring me back to a different time of year. 

When Demeter asked me to choose a scent memory that went way, way back, I knew I had to choose Thunderstorm.
