Why does outside has a “scent”?

Whenever someone comes back from a walk outside on a crisp day, they have an odor that’s distinctive of outside. My nose is not the best, but I’d say somewhat metallic. What is causing that smell?

I never smelled it when I lived up north, but it is heavy here in Florida. I have no clue what the smell even is, but every day when I walk my dog I smell it and it lasts for a while. I have to change and get rid of the smell immediately, it seems to really stick to clothes. Hot, cold, time, it doesn’t matter. I’m guessing maybe its some pollen or something, im looking for the answer too.
