Posted on 03/30/09, 03:52 pm

Not long after Luke died i'm sure we had not buried him yet i was laying in bed just starting to wake up and the next thing i smelt his deodorant come across my face i could smell him i woke my husband up and asked if he could smell it but he said no but i know i smelt Luke as he only wore one type and we have a few bottles of his here when i smelt it i was like i know thats you mate it was wonderful but sad at the same time. Another the day he was killed people were sending flowers all day we had so many flowers in our lounge room and i had set up a stand with his picture and candles and just some stuff of his anyway that night when people had left me and his Dad were sitting in frount of them crying and talking about him the next minute the smell of the flower were going in frount of our faces it was so strong that it was making you feel a little sick we both like wow i have never smelt floweers so strong it lasted about 5 mins so i would say he was with us that first night and was he is way of saying hey i'm right here with you. I know he is with us .

  I'm sure too that he is with you. I think it's great that you recognize his signs to you. Alot of people dismiss them!

  my daughter and i understand the whole "smell" of them . my son was an advid mudder. he loved 4 wheelin in his truck. we know when he is with us because we will smell the smell of mud or fresh dirt so strong that you can hardly breath. as for my son in law.... we smell his colonge too.! the only brand he used and no one else in the family does. it's great when we can tell they are with us.

  I agree, they will come around in the same scent as when they were alive, to let you know they are near. I have been smelling the scent that reminds me of my grandma a few times lately. I seem to get these smells periodically, when I am feeling really alone. I have been thinking about her alot lately too.
  
  Also, I know this sounds funny, but I'm doing some geneaolgy research lately too. And I think ancestors can visit you, that you don't know, but they know you, because they are able to watch us here, and have seen us our whole lives etc. I had a smell of cigarette smoke in my bedroom a while back, in the morning by my bed, and I did have the window opened, but I couldn't see anyone in the next yards smoking, and I don't think they do, and I have never had that smell in my room before, or since.
  
  I'm glad you were able to notice the scent of your loved one.

  My son Ryan died 3yrs ago, he was 18, he died Apr 15,2oo6 on Easter Weekend, his scattering day was yesterday the 21st of Apr, I haven't smelt his sweet smell for quite a while, all of a sudden I went to sit in my car and his sweet smell came across my nose for a second than it was gone, 2 minutes later his sweet smell came again and than it was gone... so I know he was telling me he was with me, and I told him I missed him and loved him so so much, and someday I can't wait to be with him again... I have had many different times when his scent appears, it gives me a sence of comfort & peace...

  Talking about smells,
  My mom had died, one day when I entered my apt. I smelled something burning. I did not turn back, instead I went in and thought is it a wire in the walls? I felt the wall, nothing. I went down the hallway; the smell disappeared. As I walked back to where I was...the smell was still there. I just kept breathing in the smell...I did not want it to go away. I came to realize that the smell reminded me of the wood burning stove that was at my mom's farm house where she grew up. Well, after that happened I had gone to see a psychic/medium and she told me that my mom's mom spends time in my kitchen & a kitchen on the other side (the smell).
