There are four words that I can think of relating to smell (with the extant
canon):
He' smell, emit odor (v.)
He'So' stink (v.)
largh smell, sense odors (v.)

Remember the scent. (i.e. "Learn from your experiences")

Love is always smelled ("A loved one is always smelled").
pIw odor (n.)
As we learned in "Birthright II" and "Genesis" (was that the name of that
dreadful TNG "de-evolution" episode?), Klingons have an acute sense of smell.
