Overheard a kid at the mall say 'this place smells like my grandma's basement'

He was talking about the old Sears wing at Century Mall in Omaha, and it got me thinking about how we all associate certain dead malls with specific smells. Has anyone else noticed a particular scent that takes you right back to a specific location?

Breathe in that specific mix of stale popcorn, old carpet, and cheap mall pretzel and I'm seven years old again at Crossroads.
