As many responders have pointed out already you can not smell space because it is almost a complete vacuum. However I understand that based on the analysis of the gasses and dust that float around in space it would have a "burnt" smell if you could actually smell it. This makes sense because most of the objects occupying space are objects that are in a sense "burning" like stars.

i do not know but can suppose that smell should be the same of the Hidrogen gas, very lightly, as far as space is filled basically with H molecules, with a very small concentration, . Difference with atmospheric air consists in that concentration or density of H in air -lets say - be 10 at 20power molec. per cubic meter, while in space the relation is -lets say- 1 molecule per 1000 cubic meters, for instance.

Space doesn't smell like anything. It's a vaccum of matter which means that nothing is up there... not even air. Without air, smells don't exist.

If you're lucky, it smells like the inside of a space suit.
If you're unlucky, it probably smells like blood boiling out of the inside of your nose.
