Also, if you associate memories with things it can trigger your memory. For instance, my freshman year of highschool I wore the Curious perfume by Brittney Spears everyday. And whenever I smell it, I remember something about my freshman year. I know that sounds completely absurd, but it is so true. I psychologically associated the smell of the perfume to freshman year, and I can remember a lot from it.
