a strong, pervasive, and lingering odour which has begun to dissipate or will dissipate. It is the smell which emanates emanates from a fridge, person's butt-
hole, etc. The smell is not noxious, but somewhat unpleasant.
For example, it would be used to describe the smell of over-ripened kimchi or other leftover which escapes your fridge and enters the living area; similarly it could also be the odour remaining in your
car from transporting takeout, but still exists in your
car the next time you get in ; or even the smell of another's fart that was left behind in an elevator, however, the source cannot be identified as the "fart" smell could also be left behind by someone who was delivering some sort of take-out
food; had just opened a fresh bag of
chips before leaving the elevator; or burped a meaty sausage smell such as
one which would occur after eating a couple of Big Macs or
hot-
dogs which were washed down by any carbonated drink.
