I've mostly lost my sense of smell, but from memory I would vote for the smell of a warm tube-powered console radio.

The distinct smell of nothing after powering up a new design for the first time.

Least favorite smells:
Smoke from failed RIFA metallized-paper capacitors.
Smoke from burning solid tantalum capacitors.
Smoke from burning selenium rectifiers.
Fetid smell from leaked alkaline cells.
Halcyon:
I've always found smells to be quite overpowering, particularly anything to do with chemicals or smoke. Although I remember when I was a kid, I blew up my dads old analog multimeter which smelled like roasted peanuts from that point onwards.
