Does it smell like clean&amp;fresh soil-earth-ground or have specific smell because of fertilizers (smell like poop)?

It Has a Clean Fresh Soil Smell to It! This Soil is Great. Bigger Plants & No Bugs Either!

I think it smells like an incense, rather woody. I usually burn one near where I am sitting or gardening, and if I feel I need anotherone in another spot for coverage, I go for that. Hard to tell, since different regions have different concentrations of bugs.

It does have a smell, kinda sour and considering that it contains humic acids, common in composted or fermented products, I can understand, but no it doesn't smell like rotten meat, that is a distinct smell and if yours does then you may have a problem ;D

It's organic...so my guess is no. I'd only worry about chemicals reacting to weather. Plus this suff is the solids from waste treatment plants. In other words it's poop. U will be fine..it's late June here in NY and I put a bad down last week.

I would call it a mild odor, which is a good reminder for others to stay off of the lawn until it dries (didn't notice the odor after it dried)

It smells like plants. We like it very much since it is natural so it won't smell like your common cleaner but it is pleasant not offending. Hope this helps.

it's food grade. smells like citrus and cedar combined, but weather will wear away the smell quickly if your plantars are outside.

I did not notice any odor when I opened the box. I don't know about being organic.

No, not at all. It is simply composed of the ground husks. The product is just fine, although, next time I will probably order the "organic" version. :-)

yes, but it not like all of the others with overwhelming citrus and chemical smells that just mix with the urine smell. This just has a mild fresh sent and no lingering pee smell. I can't put my finger on what it exactly smells like but It just makes me think fresh. I know I sound like a sales person, sorry for that, but that is the best explanation I've got.

YES! Mine smells like moth balls/ pesticide. I too have been buying this for years and this batch was toxic. Potentially dangerous.

There was NO Odor other than a plastic smell.. Grass rug should smell slightly plastic but NO urine odor! These are absolutely wonderful units and puppies learn very quickly to use Piddle Pad.i would ask for a replacement? AMAZON is VERY GOOD about replacement if you feel it's been used. Hope this helps! :)

The smell isn't great, but is very light (ie, doesn't stink once rubbed in or when combined with other oils/butters). I've gotten used to the nutty scent over time. As for organic, no, it isn't. It states "100% Natural" which we all know doesn't mean squat! lol.... FWIW, not sure what chems/fertilizers/etc are used in Ghana on its shea, but somehow I trust it more than the US FDA. ;->

I have a Garden Gourmet compost bin which looks exactly like this one. The fence between the next door neighbor is about six feet (houses are close together). So the compost bins (I have two) are about five feet from the house. I've had the compost bins for 20 yrs and have never had an odor issue. I only use vegetable and plant matter. I don't know what it would take to create an odor but I must be doing something right.

It really doesn't have a smell. But for a backyard, I'm sure one is good enough if you are using this in a patio area.

No, I have not once smelled the compost when the container is closed. When the container is open, I have only caught a hint of "earthy" smell. It's been a really good purchase for me. Just make sure you put holes in the base so water doesn't gather. (the part that the drum rests on) Hope that helps!
