Years before when Harry Styles was a part of a famous English pop band, he was just a young musician growing up in England’s Cheshire County. After moving on from the band and continuing his career as a solo musician, he has always been the talk of media as well as paparazzi’s eyes surrounding his love life.

The most recent rumours reveal that Styles has been dating actress Olivia Wilde, who is his co-star in the upcoming film Don’t Worry Darling. “Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde went public with their relationship when they attended a wedding together back in January 2021,” notes Seventeen, adding that  the relationship got “serious quickly” and the two have an “intense connection.”

But years before this relationship, Styles talked about something that fondly reminds him of his first-ever girlfriend. According to Styles, his first girlfriend lived a one-and-a-half-hour train ride away and he only got to see her on the weekends. “I’d finish on Saturdays at 4:30 and it was a 4:42 train, and if I missed it there wasn’t one for another hour or two,” Styles tells Rolling Stone. “So I’d finish and sprint to the train station.”

 The ‘Golden’ singer revealed that when he was 15 years old, his first proper girlfriend used to wear a specific scent, Mugler’s Alien. The fragrance holds such a strong memory for him that he can sniff it out wherever he is. To this day, Styles says he remembers the little things about his first girlfriend. “I smell that perfume all the time,” he reminisces. “I’ll be in a lift or a reception and say to someone, ‘Alien, right?’ And sometimes they’re impressed and sometimes they’re a little creeped out. ‘Stop smelling me.’”
