Septum funk is a common term for the smell that new or larger gauge septum piercings can give off. It is a combination of dead skin cells and nose goo. It has been known to smell like road-kill. Some people claim they like it. It can be knocked out by soaps such as Provon or Satin. Switching to organic jewelry or glass jewelry can help to reduce the smell.
