A dhrian, often referred to as durian, is a tropical fruit known for its distinctive smell, large size, and thorn-covered husk. Native to Southeast Asia, it is often called the "king of fruits" due to its unique flavor and creamy texture, which some people find delightful while others consider it off-putting. The strong aroma can be polarizing, leading to restrictions on its consumption in certain public places. Durians are rich in nutrients and are a popular delicacy in many Asian cuisines.
