Apestoso

Apestoso (Spanish) describes something or someone that is offensively malodorous, extremely unpleasant, or causing disgust due to a foul smell. It can refer to smells emanating from living things, objects, or environments. The intensity of the smell is a key component, connoting something overwhelmingly putrid or reeking. It's a strong descriptor, carrying negative emotional weight and often used to express revulsion or avoidance due to a repugnant odor. The term can also be used metaphorically, to describe something that's considered disgusting, or vile in other senses, such as behavior.
