odoriferous
[oh-duh-rif-er-uhs]
adjective: yielding or diffusing an odor
|
If it's odoriferous, it gives off a noticeable smell — and usually not a pleasant one. Maybe it's an overflowing garbage can or a crowded subway car. Whatever the case, you can't spell odoriferous without odor. |
Example: An odoriferous trace of bleach hung in the air after they cleaned the bathroom.
