“THE SENSE OF SMELL CAN BE EXTRAORDINARILY EVOCATIVE, BRINGING BACK PICTURES AS SHARP AS PHOTOGRAPHS OF SCENES THAT HAD LEFT THE CONSCIOUS MIND.”– THALASSA CRUSO
 
NOSTALGIA collection is a series of nostalgic moments that bring out good memories from the past. Transports us to our childhood, good times that we want to relive over and over again. Smell and memory seem to be so closely linked because of the brain’s anatomy. Due to scent passing through this area of the brain, emotions, memory, and scent become intertwined. Smell and emotion are stored as one memory. Scent is instrumental to feelings of nostalgia, safety, and comfort. Pleasant memories put us in good moods, and being in a good mood helps to reduce stress.
 
FRUIT LOOPS
 
It’s a summer morning '98, school's out, and I'm in a hurry. I grab a quick breakfast of Fruit Loops and sip of orange juice, slip on my new Converse shoes, and pop Blink-182 into my walkman. My friends are waiting outside, and I can't wait for the adventures of the summer ahead.
