Olfactory

Today I purchased some valve oil for my trumpet. 
The valves were sticking, and I will be using it (my trumpet) tomorrow night during one of Sarah's songs.  

Do you notice on the label of this valve oil that it says 'odorless'? 
I was so bummed to discover this.  I even unscrewed the cap just to be sure.
You see, the valve oil I remember from when I was a kid and first learning to play the trumpet, had this distinct smell that I find relaxing, nostalgic.  

Yep.
Sigh.

I totally remember playing trumpet in the 6th and 7th grade for band class! :D
