Smellory

Smell + Memory = Smellory
Isn’t it something how a certain smell can trigger a memory? Or how about vice versa? Have you ever been thinking about a memory and suddenly it reminds you of a smell? I have come up with my own little word for this odd occurrence…smellory. For when those peculiar aromas trigger a memory, you can feel free to use this word.
18 Indeed I have all and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God.
Philippians 4:18
What sort of sacrifice are we making? Are we making a sacrifice with an aroma that is triggering any memories? How does our sacrifice smell to God? Does it trigger good memories or bad ones? What’s your smellory?
