What do penguins smell when they are on Antarctica?
There are no natural smells on Antarctica.
However, breeding penguins on Antarctica's beaches exude guano and regurgitated food -- to feed their land-bound young -- as part of their normal bodily functions, and this guano mix can be an extremely unpleasant smell for humans. Penguins don't seem to mind.
Most of what penguins actually smell remains a mystery.
According to a 2013 study by the German Inter-Research Science Center:
". . . phytoplankton release dimethylsulphoniopropionate in the seawater, which is then catabolized to dimethyl sulphide (DMS) that is emitted to the air." (This leads krill-feeding animals to high-density food sources.)
At sea, there's no evidence that penguins respond to DMS, however, they do respond to it on land.

How does staying very close to one another help penguins to keep warm?
The metabolism of penguins (like other birds, or like mammals such as us) generates a certain amount of heat. They are not cold blooded. Furthermore, the bodies of penguins act as barriers to wind. There is less air circulation, hence, the air is less chilling.
