A client that apparently didn't took a bath for a long long time. The person's smelled like piss, sweat and dirt. It was horrible. I don't know how I survived the encounter because the person wanted to talk forever. God bless I'm far away from that position now.

Nose blindness is a hell of a thing. Someone's gotta be mentally totalled to smell like that and just let it ride
I had a serious case of chickenpox right before I turned 21. All over crust, mouth, eyelids, ears, groin.....I smelled like I was rotting and eventually was hospitalized for two weeks. The nurses took turns or drew straws or something. I pretty much went out of my mind for awhile.
On a positive note, afterwards, I didn't have any kind of acne for like 5 years.
So you pretty much shed a layer of skin. Like a snake.
Gnarly.
Oh yeah, it was fuckin gross. An all over scab. Like forbidden fried chicken.
Hahaha thanks for the visual
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.

Love that smell! Smells like childhood.
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.
A mixture of fart and sulfur. It was so bad I could puke!
