Summary

Their sense of smell came back after a few months, in phases. Since then certain things, mostly food, smell like raw sewage or an open wound, and they say they would rather have no sense of smell at all. Faeces and urine now smell of nuts and almonds to them, which they call embarrassing and scary.
