You just made me remember the smell of the Christmas decoration boxes we had growing up and now I’m tearing up. It was very slightly musty, newspapery, piney, and they always smelled (and were) cold.

Yes! You can talk about mulled wine and fruit cake all you like, but the smell of those boxes coming out was actually Christmas <3
