What does helium smell of?

No. Helium is one of the "inert" gasses, also called "noble gasses", because they undergo virtually no chemical reactions at all.Helium is odorless, tasteless, and based in its atomic number of 2 and atomic weight of 4, practically massless. Helium is very light, does not support combustion and does not support life. Helium is not poisonous, but if you are "huffing" from a helium balloon, you aren't getting any oxygen - and oxygen is one of the things that you need for life.Warning! Taking one or two breaths from a helium balloon is harmless, because there is plenty of oxygen still left in your system. But there is no oxygen in a helium balloon.Because it is completely inert, it does not bind at all with the body. So deep-sea divers use a mixture of helium and oxygen for their breathing tanks, because nitrogen in pressure causes "nitrogen narcosis" - the so-called "Rapture of the Deeps" - and oxygen is flat-out poisonous at high pressures. So divers use a mixture of 95% helium and 5% (or less!) oxygen for long-duration, high-pressure diving.
