Formaldehyde while dissecting a human body in Human Anatomy class in 1980.  Still remember.

A skunk is probably the worst, because it was very close to the house when it perfumed the whole place.

But a close second would be the rendering plant on the south side of town. Its quite a horrid stench.

I thought, what prompted that question, did you smell a skunk?  Lol by your answer I had to laugh.  

 

I don't like the smell of brussel sprouts.

@gramgrandkids1  Skunk for me, too! We live rural, lots of woods, and about once a week an unlucky skunk doesn't make it across the road. Woman Sad

 

Most roadkill around here is taken care of by buzzards in pretty short order...but even they won't touch a dead skunk--and they stink for a very long time!

Feet smell in a small all-guys house in college. It was so bad. And rotting lettuce once. And cleaning the litterbox when my cat was sick one time.

 

Gee thanks for starting this thread! Woman Madlol

Fritos smell like vomit to me. DH has to eat them on the enclosed deck outside.

Moth balls.  Men's cologne (smells just like Raid to me).
