6th sense

We have taught and know commonly of our five senses which are smell, touch (feel), taste, hear and see. Even so, we also know that every each of us have one more special sense but have you ever wonder what that extra sense that you owned is. I always use this 6th sense of mine which I thought it was one of my five senses which is smell, but I was wrong. I didn’t realize the sense that I have been using is my 6th sense. Our 6th sense is actually an extra sense that we had unconsciously developed from one of our 5 sense strongly and channel it into something extraordinary… something that makes us think or feel that it’s supernatural or magic.
As I was playing this quiz in FB, the result showed this:
Clairessence is my 6th sense; a person who’s very in tune of scent, from perfumes to flower to toxic fumes. A person gifted with clairessence will often smell certain aromas even when the source cannot be found. Or you will associate certain people with certain scents. Eg; if you are easily annoyed by a certain someone, you may pick up an unpleasant odor when he/she is around. Now, this might be due to some stinky laundry, but often it’s something that’s intuitive and only you can experience. Some even say that a clairessence will smell roses when a person has died recovered from a bad illness. Hmm…
It is true though… For people who knows me, they know that I am able to detect certain smell and categories or pick up a similarity that can relate to what I had just smell. For example, when I was around 15 yrs old, I can detect what type of cigarette any person who smoked by smelling the smell of the cigarette’s smokes from the type of Dunhill, Salem, BnH, etc… even its categories from light, menthol to hot…
Another example was when I first worked as a bartender in a hotel, I am able to detect what type of beer or liquor a person drank by smell from his/her breath from beer type of Heneiken, Guiness (bottle or stout), Martini, Margarita, Shandy, Tequilla, JD, etc… (Seriously, I hate it! I feel like vomiting smelling it every day because of working)
Ever since I was little until now, I can still smell something that other people can’t detect… a person’s own unconsciously body odor. Most people can only detect based on the type of deodorant or perfume that their using or when they are sweating… but for me, this is the type of odor that is so refined that only I can smell it even when that person just took a shower, woke up from a night sleep, or sweat; the odor never change. We all know that every one of us have our own instinctive body odor but don’t really know how its smell likes unless we start sweating of didn’t take a bath. I’m quite thankful for having this sense because this type of sense actually help me detect what type of person he or she is in terms of dangerous to be with or feel comfortable to be with, whether he/she have a pleasant term of body odor or vise versa. It’s hard to explain but people who are close to me and knew what I like to do when being around them; they understand it very well…
So, in conclusion of my nonsense story, my 6th sense is clairessence. What is your 6th sense? Maybe you do know but didn’t realize it. If you wish to find out, play the quiz from my FB page and you might find out that it might be true, relating to your experiences.
