I actually got hooked to it. When I was in Beijing in winter, I would be guided by the smell to the store. Yes, the smellier it was, the greater the kick I got.out of it. To answer your question, do I enjoy the smell? It's not the smell I enjoy although I am not put off by it. Perhaps cheese is a good analogy. I love cheese that have pungent smell. I won't just sit there to enjoy the smell. The enjoyment is tasting it. The more pungent the smell, the greater the taste of cheese to me.

With durian, it's smelly, but an acquired taste. The more you eat durian, the more you will like it. I use to hate durian because of the texture, but the more I ate it the more I liked it. Now I eat so much durian (durian is a hot food), my nose will bleed. lol.
