I've only seen people talk about this in my country and it'd be nice if people from other countries tell me about it:

does anyone know the specific smell that cockroaches and anything roach-related have? supposedly not everyone can smell it, I'm part of the population that can and it's just ew

[it's kind of in my hands right now because the drawer that i store my nail polish stuff is infested with roach pheromones or whatever)

??? no why?
