Amoy Imported

[ownertype]

Matagal ko na to gusto tanungin he he. Bakit pag may balikbayan box na galing US e may distinct smell na kung tawagin namin ay amoy imported. Ma sapatos, shirts, towels. Pag naamoy mo siya sa isang bagay e alam mo na galing tate.

[pajerokid]

true. must be the fresh air hehe.

[BlueBimmer]

yep kahit USPS packages meron din imported smell...

That's the smell of the compressed gases inside the belly of the aircraft that seep into the cargo boxes during flight. Because these gases are cold, they stay trapped inside the porous containers for a period of time long after the aircraft has landed. Kaya naaamoy mo pa rin siya once you open the boxes at home.

eh pano yung mga boxes na sa barko kinarga? ganun din kasi amoy. does the same principle of compressed gases apply?

nice follow-up question mantoy. naisip ko sana magkaroon ng car freshener na ganun ang ambipur, glade or california scents he he. Feel mo para ka cruising thru sa mga suburbs sa US dahil sa amoy

[bardigones]

experiment ka ng ganito:

isang box (balikbayan or what have you), lagyan mo ng dove na sabon (kahit nakabox, and mas ok ang dove pink - or any other soap for that matter, pero try mo muna dove-pink)

put some of your clothes in there...

close the box, say, overnight...

smell mo tomorrow...


atin-atin lang ito ha. secret lang.... ;)

and mas ok pag nasa aircon - try mo experiment yung box na maliit or plastic bag, sama mo sa loob ng car (syempre with aircon) lagay mo yung imported soap, close mo maigi yung plastic...

secret lang yan ha.... :D

[pajerokid]

baka may scent na nilalagay sa US Customs hehehe. :evillaugh

Oo nga pero kapag galing China at Asia iba rin ang amoy. Mabango ang mga galing-US.
