My dog's breath after she gets into the compost pile.

Liposuction fat

I have no idea what exactly it was, but it was a false smell I experienced in a dream one night. I can only describe it as something between vomit, sewage and death.

The experience was so disgusting I couldn't even bring myself to eat after I woke up for most of the day, kinda like a false aftertaste if that makes any sense.

Maybe you farted in your sleep

[โ€“] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

LOL, a fart would have been a blessing compared to the smell in my dream.

Love that smell! Smells like childhood.

A mixture of fart and sulfur. It was so bad I could puke!

Coffee ground emesis, and stool from a patient dying from a GI bleed. Absolute worst smell I have encountered in my life. It's also a smell that sticks to you.

Oh, you just gave me flashbacks. The closest I can come to describing it is rotting lilies.

I think rotten eggs are worse though.

Ammonia. It doesn't technically smell bad, but it stings and does horrible stuff to you. Had the misfortune to use a lot in Chemistry and ended up puking from poisoning.

That and diarrhea and diarrhea farts.

Many years ago, I went to a plant manufacturing cooking oil. We were installing new fatty acid deodorizers. Damn, they needed them.

Pulp and paper plants are pretty nasty; and food processing plants with wet/rotting grains are vile. I used to get highly amused by auditors puking. Raw sewage generally smells better - lol.
