A nasty, sickly sweet, acidic smell that absolutely ruined all forms of mushroom and fungus for me because they seem interconnected, like an organic, alien smell of decay and fermenting biology.
I don’t have a great sense of smell, but I seem particularly sensitive to smells like ants and truffles, it makes me gag.
So, what do ants smell like?

Like ballpoint pen ink
Weird I didn’t realize that was an actual thing. That’s how worms smell to me too.
