There are also volitile sulfuric compounds that contribute to the smell. And we still have to figure out how and if they affect the effects.

very interesting, sulfuric compounds smell like rotten eggs?

Sulfur (hydrogen sulfide) itself does. Examples of other sulfuric smells include skunk and garlic.
