My slice of NWA 096 (H3.8) smelled like bubble gum when I got it. I kept it double sealed in ziploc bags, but the smell went away after a year or so.

I received two slices of this CV3 meteorite and noticed they smell like
fruity gum. It?s very weak but definitely noticeable. Yes?I smell all my
meteorites when I get them?it can?t be that strange of a ritual. Anyone else
out there with NWA 2140 notice this? Or did my dealer happen to be wearing
his wife's Bath 'N Body Works hand lotion when he packed my slices?

I remember some other C meteorite having similar scent, no?

Kind regards,

Mike Bandli
