Unusual Odors?

[Tylo]

I recall hearing a guy on YouTube say that he thought a Sasquatch in his area put out a scent of vanilla. A few people mention a floral fragrance that they thought was associated with Sasquatch activity.  I'm wondering if any of you have also detected distinctive unusual odors that you thought were Sasquatch related?  I know I had the rotten fish/rancid oil/skunk stench once in Wisconsin, it made me incredibly nauseous and it was during a night that there was a wall of dense fog.  I do know that scents waft around in outdoor areas, I could smell a floral fragrance today floating around the yard about forty feet from my Korean Spice Viburnum. Have any of you had odd olfactory experiences that you connect to Sasquatch?

Just a slight musty smell, not like a bear, kinda on the sweeter end of a musty wild animal.

I have heard this also.

I've encountered that smell numerous times on a particular ridge I used to hunt often, a couple of decades ago. I always thought it was a bear, as they were very common in that area. Sort of a rich wet dog odor.

@Skinwalker13 @BC witness Yes, I would expect a wild animal odor, that makes sense.  I was wondering if anyone else detected other unusual/unexpected odors.  Jumping around the internet since 2013 I've read or heard people stating that they thought out-of-place odors were connected to Sasquatch activity.  Floral or a spice???

 

@Doug  It's interesting to read and hear such things.  It's like people describing eye glow instead of shine.  Different colors, too. Yellow, orange, red, blue, green, purple.  Something I keep in mind.  I also think many of these informal reports and videos are now gone from the internet.  Photos seem to be removed as well.  I wonder if that is due to Google dumping what they deem to be irrelevant information.

not quite wet dog on my end, it smelled kinda sweet but musty.  not a sour smell like  a wet dog. think like a dogwood blooms mixed with a musk. black bear smell more rotten and foul at least out here in the east.

@Skinwalker13The sweet part of that odor is interesting to me. I've detected a sweet smell from dead animals during summer, my neighbor the farmer would dump dead hogs in a ditch.  A nasty sight.

The Q focuses on odors attracting Bigfoot.   Let’s focus on the reverse.     Roger Patterson said Bigfoot is really smelly like a wet dog.   Others have mentioned this.    
 

might the smell of Patty - the stink- be a way to find Bigfoot.   If I’m lost in the woods a search plane might miss me.  If I light a smoky signal fire they can spot my smoke signals.   Couldn’t this same thing be applied to the odor of Bigfoot?   If there was a way to detect odors from afar perhaps this would make it easier to spot Bigfoot.  It would be a bread crumb trail leading to the target.

Smells like 1990’s skunk cannabis straight up.

Well I doubt it as the road kill skunk cannabis of the 90’s has pretty much been bred out of existence. If you smelled that it was either a Sasquatch or real skunk weed lol. It was so pungent you could smell it through a car window. That is what Sasquatch smells like. As a longtime stoner, if I smell that scent again I will probably charge toward it because I will probably find what aim looking for be it squatch or skunk weed.

We call it "BC God Bud" and it still exists.
