Mustard gas was used in chemical warfare as early as World War I by Germans and as late as the Iran-Iraq War in 1980-1988. Sulfur mustard is a thick liquid, which was made for use as a chemical weapon.
The sulfur mustards, of which mustard gas is a member, are a class of related vesicant chemical warfare agents with the ability to form large blisters on exposed skin. In their pure form most sulfur mustards are colorless, odorless, viscous liquids at room temperature. The name "mustard" comes from the smell associated with impure mustard gas, which is usually yellow-brown in color and has an odor resembling mustard plants, garlic or horseradish.
