locker room smell
Stale athletic odor
The distinctive odor of spaces where people change clothes and store athletic gear—a blend of sweat, damp towels, mildew, and stale air.
The smell is pungent and universally recognized: The gym had that familiar locker room smell.
It can describe any enclosed space with similar funk: His car has a permanent locker room smell.
