Probably cumin. Cumin is the part of curry that smells like curry, and what makes Spanish and Mexican food smell so good. Curry is a mixture of many spices: tumeric, mustard, cumin, chili, and so on.

this might sound dumb but... prolly their curry powder. The most frangrent ingrediant in must currys is the cumin.. that is not to say that it isn't clove. Everyones currie is different. Aside form the "ok" stuff you buy in the grocery stores here real homemade curry is rarely the same thing everytime

It is a mix of many spices. However, the traditional curry flavor is associated with fenugreek.

An abudance of aromatic herbs and spices. For example, corriander seeds, mustard seeds, cumins, fennels, cardamons, cloves, cinnamons, and perhaps "curry leaves". Hope that helps.
