The smell of skunk is very characteristic and strong, at the time it was considered the cannabis strain with the strongest smell. It is commonly described as a pungent aroma with sweet undertones and a fruity, musky touch. In some cases, the aroma can be very intense and overpowering, especially in mature plants or during the second part of flowering. The intensity of the smell can be a problem in some situations, so growers often use strong carbon filters and other methods to control and reduce the smell. Despite its strong aroma, skunk is highly valued for its unique taste and effects, and remains one of the most popular and recognized cannabis strains worldwide.
