Silver does not have an exact smell nor a strong one
Ed: Actually, it does, but the smell is hard to describe. Try smelling a genuine silver item and then compare it to other (perhaps supposedly) silver items. This is a great method if you are interested in antiques and want to see if a certain item is genuine silver. Good luck!! =D

∙ 12y agoGold in general does not have a odor to it. This is a good way to tell brass from gold. When you rub brass between your fingers and smell your fingers it will give off a distinct odor Although patina on gold does have a smell so this is not a conclusive way to tell the two apart in my opinion.
