    As a kid I used to be able to recognize my mom's smell, but that's kind of it. You're a superhero man :P

    Unfortunately, some people can be recognized by their small. My father-in-law and step children smell like moth balls. They have very oily skin and hair. It will knock you over.

    Definitely normal. I recognise my friends by the smell of their perfumes.

    Totally normal. I do this to. I even had a grnadpa who died when I was two or three... I have a hard time remembering what he looked like now but I'll always remember how he smelled.

    It's normal don't worry. When I was little if we found a random sweatshirt in our classroom I would smell it and identify the owner. It's weird. I know.

    If someone plays the "guess who" game with me I always know who it is because of their small. Your normal.

    I know the smell off everyone thats close to me... like best friends, parents, my fiance. Id prob be able to do a scent line up, but thats only with people I spend a lot of time with. I think its fairly normal though.

    I think only blind peeps will identify with you on this.

    It is a scientific fact that our sense of smell triggers more memories than our other senses, including the sense of sight. Totally normal.

    Maybe my nose just isn't that good, but maybe you should tell these people that they smell strongly enough for you to recognize them by it. Some people do have strong smells and it's just something you have to deal with, but if you are more reliant on smell than sight, there's probably something wrong.
