    It’s the smell of daemons leaving your body.

    God bless you.

    I don’t smell anything after I sneeze… You should probably check with a doctor to make sure you don’t have an infection.

    I only get it when I’m sick or about to be. Usually a sign of a sinus infection. Seems like mucus that hasn’t fully engulfed the source of infection still carries enough out to have a smell.

    You guys have a smell after you sneeze? I just feel pain throughout my body after them sometimes.

    You either have tonsil stones or a chronic sinus issues. Talk to an actual doctor.

    Edit: But in answer to your question … the smell is bacteria that your sneeze has stirred up.
    Tonsil stones are basically piles of bacteria. Chronic sinus infections are more bacteria. Those are the two most likely sources.

    I can’t describe it, but I know EXACTLY what you mean.

    Get that checked out.

    Only time I have a post sneeze smell is when I have a nosebleed about to start.

    This is so fascinating because yeah, a sneeze isn’t supposed to smell, this is entirely unrelatable to me.
