Leather! I walk in my leather shop or my tack room and it smells like heaven. The piney woods I hunted as a kid in east Tx. Sweet feed, Spent some time as a kid at the race track when my dad was training racehorses. We mixed each horses feed with like 15 different supplements and such. Red Cell was one I often considered takin a swig of.

Yeah, I remember Looper Leathergoods in okc when they had a store front there on Prospect. The aroma would knock you down.

You folks keep bringing up things I didn't list.
There was a shop in one of the malls, Quail Springs I think that sold leather goods and pipe tobacco.
Just walking by there make you suck in your gut and square your shoulders. Real manly smells.

I like a lot of those already mentioned but one that hasn't been listed yet is the smell of nitromethane exhaust blasting out from top fuel dragsters.

At least I really enjoyed it thirty years ago when I used to go to Thunder Valley now and then.
