Blue smells like raspberry.
Purple smells like grape.
Pink smells like watermelon.
Red smells like cherry.
Orange smells like orange.
Yellow smells like lemon.
Green smells like apple.

That's only the most popular theory though.

TBH do a high dose of LSD and find out. Ive never smelt colors on it though, only tasted them. You can't describe it unless you have experienced it,

ask someone with extreme synesthesia.

There's a couple ways one might answer this, I would think it depends on how close the vision processing in your brain is to the smell processing, or it could be how photons of different wavelengths would affect your smell receptors, if they COULD affect your smell receptors. i'm not about to start trying to speculate, go crazy.

There's a good chance Mr. Osborne knows the answer to this question.
