There really are lots of fragrances and aromas that are so iconic, they literally bring us back to certain places and memories. For Pinoy families who have loved ones living and working in the States, one of the most iconic aromas is that of the recently opened balikbayan box.
It’s not so easy describing exactly what it smells like, but some say that it’s a mix of a variety of soaps, shampoos, lotions, and perfumes that people send over to the Philippines through those big balikbayan boxes.
