There's a recurring thing where I run into a person with a very "spicy" potpourri type odor. Happens in elevators and other confined spaces, and the odor is really pungent. Seems to span cultures... sometimes an old white lady, other times a young Indian male, other times just random people. WTF is this smell? Somewhat like cloves, but worse and more nauseating.
