When I was doing industrial hydraulics we fixed stuff in a few really "nice" places.

Two sewage treatment plants.
One mixed the semi treated water with wood chips to make fertilizer.
The other had filter presses to press the water out of the treated solids.

Not all that bad, the smell went away within a few blocks.

And a place that processed fish remnants into mink food. So take all the bits of old fish from wherever, plus the bits nobody wanted from places doing the filleting. Grind, mix with water, press out some water, freeze into blocks.

The entire place was cold, wet, and smelled of bad fish. The worst part was that you always got a little bit of something on your clothes somewhere. So the smell stayed with you for a few days. Not consistent, but maybe a couple times a day for the rest of the week you's smell fish. if there was a yuck face icon I'd use a couple of them.
I did get to see a rare sight - A seagull not being able to keep some bit of fish down.

There were a few others that were hot or otherwise unpleasant, but nothing close to that.
