Question

Which fruit in Southeast Asia is banned due to it's powerful odor?

Answer 1

Hi friend,

The fruit which is banned in Asia due to its powerful pungent smell is Durian. It has an odour, which may linger for several days and this has led to the fruit's banishment from certain hotels and areas.

People have different ideas about its odour like:-
Some regard it as having a pleasantly sweet fragrance while others find the aroma overpowering with an unpleasant odour. But the smell has widely been described as rotten onions, turpentine, and raw sewage.

Hope it helps!
