Is there a smell engineered into cars ?

Deep thoughts by Jack Handy today.
Every small chevrolet I get into has this irish spring soap smell. I used to think it was from the customers, but no. Every single one of them has the same smell . I can even pick it up in smokers cars.
Oddly enough, all the pickups from that same era, have a certain smell . It is different, but I recognize it as soon as I step into one. I have noticed this with a lot of different manufactures . I have always wondered if it is just the plastic, and fabrics leeching out , but the Chevrolet smell, almost smells good, like it was meant to be that way .
Obviously, cars with leather have that sweet leather smell, and all old BMW's smell like dirty gym socks .
