It describes a sort of nostalgic feeling, when something triggers a very strong emotion or sense in you that makes you feel connected to the past, or a particular time in the past. I hadn’t heard the word before and now I’ve forgotten it; it’s driving me crazy.

Please, clever wordy types, help me!

Reminiscent, deja vu, sentimental, wistful?
