I don't nose why.

Part of my morning commute passes by a city-run water treatment plant. Many would assume that the odour emanating from such a facility would be reasonably consistent, given that the products (or byproducts, as the case may be) being processed shouldn't change much on a day to day basis. But this isn't the case. Naturally there's a bit of variation in the intensity of the odour due to wind direction and the current ambient temperature, but the smell actually changes quite drastically. Some days is smells like dirty laundry. Other days is honestly give the impression that someone is barbecuing steak by the side of the road. Sometimes it has an almost citrus-like air to it, and still other times it's a heavy, yeasty fresh-baked bread smell. Of course, today it smelled like a water-treatment plant, but you get the idea.
