Pure water is odorless, colorless and tasteless, but sometimes the other things in the water such as algae or bacteria do have an aroma, and even soil can have an odor when it is wet with water.

Pure water is odorless. If your water has a smell it is because of something in it. Sometimes well water has chemicals dissolved in it that have an odor.
