My own fart, especially after a good meal of steak or a solid beef burger.

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

The sense of smell is the sense most closely associated with memory.  Every time I smell lilacs I have very vivid visions of PT during basic training in Ft. Jackson.  It was April (1989) and the first time I'd been in the south other than in the middle of winter/very early spring.  The smell of the air was absolutely intoxicating.  These are the kind of memories that although you don't realize it at the time, stay with you for the rest of your life.

   " My *&%hole brother bought her back in September '57. That's when you get your new model year, September. Brand new, she was. She had the smell of a brand new car. And that's just about the finest smell in the world....except maybe for <meow>. "

Actually tobacco smoke in a cowshed smells very good.
(no joke, there is a combination of hay, fur, dung and tobacco, quite funny)

Burnt gunpowder, a Labrador's coat after a day in the Fall fields, fresh coffee, antelope stew...
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Bar chick:

Subtle combo of low-end perfume, alcohol and cigarette smoke.

Talk about bringing back memories.
