Do scents trigger different memories?

The smell of gardenias- A flower that was prevalent in the yard of the house I grew up in. I now live far north where they dont grow, but when I catch the scent of anything remotely close..... boy it takes me back to when I was a child, when all was right in the world.
 
If I come across a meadow and there happens to be a bull defecating, it always brings me back to SD.
