Nah, it's far more things than just those. I'm guessing the person who made this doesn't have anyone who's good at cooking around them. I used to have a friend who was like that, he and his gf only cooked 3 or 4 dishes and they were all bland as fuck. The only spices etc. they had were salt, pepper, thyme and a huge 1-litre box of cheap taco seasoning. Whenever I cooked for them, they were blown away, and I tried giving them some other species, but they never used them.

Im not doubting your story, but yes just those three things smell fantastic when cooking.

Onions sautéing in butter is the absolutely most fantastic smell ever.
