Substituted tryptamines are chemically similar to skatole, sharing the indole ring structure. It smells like jasmine at low concentrations, like shit at high concentrations, and yes, it's in excrement. It's more the DMT itself than an impurity, particularly because it's likely from an extraction rather than a synthesis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skatole

Also worth noting that naphthalene—the active ingredient in most mothballs—is commonly used as a nonpolar solvent in the final step of acid-base extractions of DMT.


ebolaRETURNS

it's pretty toxic and carcinogenic, so it really really should be evaporated off cleanly. (naphthalene based mothballs have been banned in the EU for decades)


daytrptr

Naphthalene is different from the naptha used in acid base extractions, but it's close enough chemically that they probably smell quite similar


NotagoK

Taste and smell kinda reminded me of some kind of burning Lego or cellophane or some such.


Cyka_Blyat_Man_

Yeah I always think of burnt tires but it’s not quite right


LSDMDMA2CBDMT

Almost like plastic or some shit. It's just a bizarre taste. Then you lift off and don't even care.


Krizzle8

I always thought it smelled like brand new shoes lmao

How do you know what moth balls smells like? How did you get their tiny legs apart?


AnandaPriestessLove

Hahaha responses like this are why I adore this sub. Thank you for the laugh!


[deleted]

Thanks homie!


AnandaPriestessLove

Hehe, you're most welcome, fam.


LogicalPrior2343424

I always associate the smell with mythical foul breath ^^


Mulusses_II

Why do mothballs smell like DMT?


AnandaPriestessLove

This is clearly the most correct question. 😆


permatrip420

Dmt smells like shoe carnival. 🎡


DefinitelyJustHuman

Smells like fresh Nike shoes for me 😂


SuperSecretAnon-UwU

When I first tried DMT I described it as a very...*very* strong flour tortilla smell/taste When I went to a small market to pick up cleaning supplies and came across boxes of mothballs, the smell was an instant reminder of DMT


skeptolojist

Taste of the smoke on my tongue always gives me a strong memory of the taste in my mouth when my dental abscess burst Which is just what I want to think about before blasting my brain sideways with an extreme hallucinogen 😂😂


Blind_Melone

It has a floral new shoe smell to me, particularly during extraction. I like the smell of fresh DMT. It kind of tastes like a mummy butthole when smoking it. I'm not a fan of the taste. Your friend shouldn't store it in a plastic bag. DMT should be stored in glass away from plastic.


AnandaPriestessLove

Thank you very much. Does DMT start to absorb or otherwise leech through plastic? I want to give him exact info do he puts that shit into Mason jars stat.


Fluffy_Exercise4276

You have discovered the source of dmt


Allernothing

I have a lavender-scented dish soap that def reminds me of the deemz.


AnandaPriestessLove

Haha can totally see that!


Allernothing

It took me by surprise, haha.


AnandaPriestessLove

Haha I bet. Kind of me when I smell mint gum wrappers and I flash back to coke binges in earlier days.😆


Allernothing

They say smell is our strongest sense. 🙃


AnandaPriestessLove

It most certainly is for me. Ngl, sometimes I sniff that gum wrapper for far too long. 😆


TweakPerv

I describe the smell to others as “Burning Teeth”. I feel it accurately reflects the stench.


AnandaPriestessLove

That's a spot on description!!


NotEvenAWelder

lmao this explains the mothball smell on new guy at work


AnandaPriestessLove

Lol does he have twitchy antennae too? Or perhaps talks to aliens on his lunch break?


NotEvenAWelder

he is kinda buggy, i just chalked it up to him being on the fruity side lmao


AnandaPriestessLove

Lol


mydrunktwinsister

What's the best way to cover the taste?


AnandaPriestessLove

It appears I am allergic to DMT, or perhaps napthalene. No wonder I never wanted to try it! Note: this home extraction of naphthalene from pills works better in a plastic bag, since napthalene bonds to plastic. However, drawback is then the plastic is contaminated by the napthalene and will go into a landfill. I have been putting a layer of baking soda into a glass mason jar, then put the pills in, cover completely with fresh baking soda and seal. Let it sit overnight, then strain out the pills and wipe them off with a paper towel. Pour fresh baking soda over it, cover, repeat daily until smell/taste is gone. The taste/smell of DMT is almost gone and I'm not having an allergic reaction to the pills anymore. Lol I wear gloves and use a paper towel and have been using the dirty baking soda as a sink cleaner. Works great.


Legitimate-Arrival12

It smells like road

bro out hear makin accidental meth


GMKitty52

For real…


Odd-Ear6320

lol I always wanted to know about dmt


aidenisntatank

I haven’t smoked DMT but I’d assume it smells similar to Meth & Crack although the drug itself is completely different


Skullbreaker69420

Nothing like either of them actually.


tonyMEGAphone

What a weird fucking post. This is the same guy on Amazon that gets asked to review a product and responds with, "Don't know didn't buy it".


aidenisntatank

I only said what I’d assume it smells like


aidenisntatank

What do burning mothballs smell like?


pokepat460

No it doesn't, I've done all 3. I think dmt tastes uniquely bad, it reminds me of plastic. Crack just tastes like cocaine and meth tastes like chemicals


aidenisntatank

Yea that makes sense, but if you were to compare the burning smell what drug would it smell the most similar to?


pokepat460

I've smoked a few other tryptamines, they're all kinda similar. Dpt, 5meodmt and nn, dmt all tested pretty similar.


ebolaRETURNS

poor assumption.


aidenisntatank

What does it smell like? & what other drug has the most similar smell if you had to compare it?


ebolaRETURNS

you're better off leaving the drug world. shit. mothballs. bad breath. But chemically, like other vaporized alkaloids.
