Why do Somalis have a distinctive smell?

[Forfon]

If you entered an empty room. You could tell there was a Somali in here.

Sometimes it's bearable , sometimes it's repugnant.

What is this smell?

 

[Bahal]

Dat smell is called self loathing

 

[Ruqiya]

Bariis iyo baasto badan ee la cuno just kidding. I think it caused by not showering after cooking.

 

[Safiya]

Hahah prettys sure its uunsi mixed with suugo. Thank god i always smell like juicy couture

 

[Geeljire]

That smell i have noticed myself. It must be the smell of uunsi mixed with body odor and somali food.

Just a guess. But i have noticed all groups smell cadaanka & Arabs smell like wet raw doofaar. Madowga Afrikanka have this thick musty fishy very nausea causing smell . Tamil/indians ive met smell like straight spicey doo doo. Walah do not step inside their house or else you will think they are cooking xaar.

Compared to other groups the somali smell is bearable and fine. I barely even notice it.

 

[Mr.Stone]

So you go around empty rooms/ houses to smell them ?

Every Somali house I've been to always smell of bakhoor, we sometimes put it in ours too! lol

So do you like the smell of bakhoor? Bakhoor makes me sick walaahi. I get allergies if I smell that. I hate when old somali women put that on.

They eat raw meat and don't brush their teeths. What do you expect?

 

[Forfon]

What do you think of Orthodox Jews?

 

[Hafez]

They smell like no other. I can't even describe it. It reminds me of Ants, I don't know why!

Naw the xabash i grew up with smelled like berberi fungis and alchohol and had the worst breath since they ate raw saamon and raw pig in front of me.They are pretty cool people but they dont smell up to par.
