For one season I lived on the second floor of an old Victorian house in
Victoria, BC.  There was a huge Chestnut tree shading my kitchen window.
When that tree bloomed, I practically had to vacate the flat!  It was the
joke of the neighborhood, really.  We called it all sorts of hideously
gross names, because the smell was undeniably, and very strongly, that of
sperm.

Regards,
Ann
