I actually lost my sense of smell when I was 7. (19 now) I hardly remember the smell of things, but occasionally I get "phantom smells." For example, when I watched Hugo from Lost the other day go face down in some grass, I could smell grass for a moment. At that time I could remember instantly that I was smelling grass, but I can't recall the smell of grass since and I couldn't remember it before. It was weird.

Come to a deaf man's AMA, get reminded of my lack of sense of smell. Shucks.. (Not that it's comparable to the difficulty of being deaf)
