White Elephant - The smell

Got a 150g tin of white elephant, it is really good but it doesn’t smell nothing like fish, it smells like some kind of dirt. Anyone else thinks the same thing ?

Those metal tins have a breach half the time.  If your tin has an opening anywhere, maybe the fish food smell has already aired out.  Just a theory.  It does kind of smell like tobacco dirt otherwise, which I’m a fan of.

After a few months, the fishy smell went away to me. Now when I use it, I get a very mild toasty smell. Still hard to sniff. I learned to just stick my finger in it and sniff off what stuck.

Yeah, it probably aired out, it’s a shame, im a fan of fish smell  :stuck_out_tongue: As for potency it kinda wakes you up real good. Lots of energy. Thanks on the comments!

Does snuff go bad? I chucked half a tin of WE recently which had developed a distinct rankness. Before that it was jolly nice and decidedly fishy.

I wish I could get WE in smaller amounts. Instead of buying a 150g tub to try it out.

@psicko, I have a ton of WE, I can send a sampler if youre interesred.

I think WE is top tier white. Earthy aroma, mildly sweet imho.

@Psicko, it’s sometimes available in 35 gram tins. Regrettably, supplies at MS seem to be somewhat irregular of late, as with all the White Indians.

Smells like  heaven

Smelled of fish food and body odor to me (same with other indian whites). Firmly in the ‘never again’ category for me.

I just took the last few pinches from my only ever tin of WE a few days ago. I’ve had it since I first started snuffing, so about 4 years. The fishy smell was there strongly at the start and subsided over time, by the time I got to the last 1/5 of the tin the fish had swam off. It was still enjoyable to take and had acquired a darker tan colour and more moistness (35g tins are not airtight. I need to buy more.

Another interesting thing, for anyone who makes it to the bottom of a WE tin, is the recycled tin they use has brand logo’s from other products. I got a blue font that had only 3 or 4 letters so I couldn’t make anything from it. I need to buy more, I might get the other half of the message.

Kind of smells like semen to me. Highly overrated.

Decaying plaster on the walls of a soon to be condemned Victorian back-to-back. Absolutely fantastic!
