My mum always put it down to the person that borrowed it when we first got it. She said his BO smelt of garlic. I was only about 7 so I just took her word for it!
I just knew as I got older that Summer had arrived when the scent of garlic came (only got used in the garden for my mum to sunbathe).

Airbed number 2 looks suspiciously like the mocha colourway used by Outwell for their new range. Have they been using the old catalogues for inspiration?
