That's the one that does it for me too, although I include Viburnum
x burkwoodii and Viburnum x juddii with it in terms of fragrance.
That smell always tells me that spring is here, so I have a V. carlesii
'Compactum' right by the front door (

for those of you who want to know more about this one).

Other plants that I really enjoy for early spring fragrance are
lily-of-the-valley, grape hyacinths, sweet woodruff, and of course,
lilacs (particularly Syringa meyeri -- not very over-powering and
really pleasant).
