    Pinstripes, dings, and dust.
    I was just going to say the same. Smells like Grandma's house.

    It's funny because it's true. It has a smell of nostalgia. Funny how a smell can do that. It reminded me when I found a library card catalog on craigslist. As soon as I opened one of the drawers I smelled school library, a trip in the wayback machine.

    I loved the smell of our old Hi-Fi - ozone and lemon Pledge. Mom kept that thing waxed to an immaculate gloss.

    Wanted to play a record? Turn it on and wait 10 minutes. The smell of the tubes warming up was like electronic sex to 10 year-old me, but worth the wait to play 40 Funky Hits, Frampton Comes Alive, or an original pressing of Switched On Bach…all of which I have digitally now but don’t sound the same.

    Thankfully it didn't smell like rotten potatoes. Not sure why it would?

    Oh Jeebus.... that brings back a memory. Back in college, my [now] wife and I had an apartment together. we had a sack of potatos in a kitchen drawer. That we forgot about. For a rather long time. One day we started smelling this most stomach churning smell in the kitchen. Started looking everywhere. Opened the drawer........ We did not previously know that potatoes liquify when they have reached a certain advanced stage of rot. It was all we could do not to loose our cookies while we cleaned that drawer. That is a very unique smell. You will never forget it.

    I don't wanna be "that guy", but that seems like cultural appropriation to me...
