Skunk Water

Police departments in the United States have bought a foul-smelling liquid developed in Israel to repel protesters. It is a truly putrid stench. Palestinians who have been sprayed describe it as "worse than raw sewage" and "like a mixture of excrement, noxious gas and a decomposing donkey".  The secret recipe includes yeast, baking powder and water, which sounds innocent enough. But the scent can linger on skin and in the environment for days, sometimes longer.  Although it may induce a gagging reflex, the company says skunk is made "100% food-grade ingredients" and is "100% eco-friendly - harmless to both nature and people".
