garbage smell
Rotting refuse odor
The distinctive odor of rotting organic matter and decomposing waste.
Garbage smell is unmistakable—a mix of sour, putrid, and sometimes sweet decay: The garbage smell hit us as soon as we opened the lid.
The phrase describes any foul odor reminiscent of trash: There's a garbage smell coming from the fridge.
