I sprained my ankle a lot growing up because I took dance lessons and wasn’t bestowed with the genetic gift of strong ankles.

Whenever I sprained it, I would take the tensor bandage from my father’s dresser.  It always smelled like his cologne.

I never really thought about until today when I bought a new tensor brace and sniffed it (out of habit.)

It was a sad moment when I realized the natural odour of a tensor bandage is not cologne-like in nature.
