When a certain smell gives you feelings of transcendence. I.e. nostalgia for a time long passed triggered by smell.

Get the scentimental mug.A new mental illness in which the afflicted person maintains relationships with people from the past who no longer wish to have anything to do with them. People having this affliction should seek professional help. This is a mild form of stalking and the afflicted person does not have their current emotional needs met and tries to console his or herself by looking into their past. These people also like to collect things from their youth and adolesence. Like an old salesman they go over their old leads (only the quality ones) and try to find something of value in the past, either acceptance, forgiveness, or re-assurance. It is unclear what would come of the person if they were actually to harvest one of these relationships and see themselves as successful in this respect. See also: stalker loser dumbass forrestgump
John is a real mess. Everytime his life gets tough he calls his ex-girlfriends and feels like he is right back with them even when that chick hasn't heard from him in years. I think he has gross sentimentality.

Get the Sentimentally mug.The one that gets attracted to people and starts paying attention to every little thing they do, even without realizing it themselves. The ones that either tell the person and get rejected or not tell them at all, but still love and care for the person with all their heart.

Get the Sentimental Observer mug.A physiological glitch where your adult body has a romantic reaction to a childhood memory. It occurs when you see a vintage photo of a child actor you loved in the 3rd grade, and your brain accidentally reboots your original hormones from 2007. It’s essentially the "ghost of crushes past" haunting your pants.
"I was scrolling through a 'Throwback Thursday' thread and saw a picture of Miranda Cosgrove from the early iCarly days. I got a total sentimental boner. It felt like my adult self was high-fiving my 10-year-old self across the space-time continuum."

Sentamentally exerting measures of influence in old age will stop cold specific forerunners siething with rage; quite simply there'll be no more mourning in forev'morn for the most part emotionally escaping from lost scorn.
