I don't know what Tutenkamen's tomb smells

(as in VHS tape) does give off a unique smell when warm. I used to take out
the videocassette after watching something, turn it upsidedown and give it a
sniff (no, I don't know why I started doing that!). I started doing that
quite a bit (not sure whether it was habit or addiction!) for a while, but
eventually stopped.
Videocassette drawers always smell like cough syrup to me.
