A bad smell.

the rotting
The fetid smell of rotting garbage filled the alleyway, causing people to hold their noses as they passed by.
The storm itself was just humid, not really a smell. BUT the smell returning home was the worst smell I have ever smelt it was the smell of rotting meat, trash, rotting seafood, and much more. The refrigerators sat in front every house as the rotting food continued to sit in it. The smell was unbearable.
they have a rotting smell because the rotting smell makes insects come to eat. I'm not sure about this but i think they eat the insects when they approach the plant or something, try searching on Google or bing. :D
rotting eggs
Those flowers are pollinated by flies, which are attracted to the smell of rotting meat. Yuck.
It smelt like rotting skin and skiny sweat and other nasty things.
Insects have a very keen sense of smell. For them it is easier to smell rotting things than a good smelling flower. In one of the programs in discovery channel a few years ago the host of the program showed that vibrant coloured butterflies are atracted to a mixture of dung, urine and many rotting materials. Though butterflies suck nectar from flowers the most strikingly beautiful butterflies are attracted to the most rotting things around
The smell.
No, not necessarily. Brimstone (sulfur) is abundant on earth and there are numerous things that can cause the smell including rotting eggs and car batteries. Don't immediately assume its anything supernatural.
