Mummification is the preservation of the soft tissue of a body by any means, natural or artificial. Embalming is the deliberate preservation of a body for any period of time. This includes what we commonly term "the process of mummification" in Ancient Egypt
The circulatory system of the body, which includes the heart and blood vessels, is central to the embalming process. During embalming, embalming fluid is typically injected into the arterial system, which involves accessing and treating the major arteries, particularly the carotid arteries in the neck. The embalming fluid then circulates throughout the body, preserving and disinfecting tissues.

This depends on how advanced of the decomposition the remains were in when they were received by the funeral. The longer it took for the body to reach there, the more difficult it will be to disinfect the body. Embalming, by itself, doesn't negate the body odor. But the process of embalming, which includes washing the body and disinfecting it as best as possible, reduces the body odor significantly. It should be noted that embalming is not designed to preserve the body - it simply delays its decomposition process. After embalming, the body may take more time to decompose, especially if the casket and the grave vault are sealed.
