Every time I put my jewelry on and then put on cologne, I remember that video from a jeweler talking about how when he steam polishes antique jewelry, it reactivates the oils in the traces of perfume and lotion on the piece and he’s essentially smelling a dead person’s perfume. Like the phenomenon of antique swords smelling like blood and death when polished. But a little sweeter and more nostalgic.
