Creosote

Nail varnish.
You can get petrichor candles to replicate that smell.
My favourites are those that remind me of summers as a kid, like a lot of those mentioned, so freshly cut grass, creosote, tarmac etc.
I also really like the smell of sawdust - I like how a room smells of it for a day after you put up an Ikea unit.
