Working a lot with DD-X these days. It's completely odorless.

I've been using DD-X a lot over the past year and it's never had any order.

Who was the seller? CITRUS? It sounds as if they sold you what in the U.K. is called a "lemon"

If nothing spilled, and your bottle is perfectly sealed, I would assume they are using the new compostable peanuts which do have a weird smell

Normally Freestyle wraps the bottle in a pastic bag, wasn't this the case?
