A question I've often pondered whilst sitting in the bath myself :) However, the best I've ever come up with is that your nose is closer to the 'flatus' when it enters the air so's more concentrated. If you've got the guts and your willing to use them ;) you could try smelling at various distances, just to see....

Does chlorine have odour is it worse than wastewater?

If you have ever smelled laundry bleach, or been in a swimming pool and noticed a smell to the water- that is the smell of chlorine (in a fairly mild form). Pure chlorine gas is pale green, has a choking, burning smell, and is deadly to breathe. Whether it is "worse" than the smell of wastewater would depend on the purity of the chlorine you smell- the more pure, the worse the smell.
