Have you ever experienced stench so bad you could taste it?

I am riding along and I see road kill up ahead. I can see before I get there the poor beast has been mangled fairly well, and some of the guts are in the roadway. I am thinking I am going to see the remains of someone’s poor cat, but as I get closer I can see the telltale stripe of a skunk. Knowing its guts has been squished I figure the stink sac is ruptured. I hold my nose and breathe through my mouth as I pass. I got a weird taste to my mouth as I passed and even though I did not inhale through the nose, I could still smell a tinge of skunk. Have you been exposed to stench so potent it actually affected your tongue? Whatever, chemical makes up skunk stench it must be thick in the air to the point it can be tasted.
