Back in the early days of Cat converters the smell was considered to be some sort of byproduct of a malfunctioning Cat caused by cheap adulterated fuel. Most cats in the era didn't smell, and there were a couple companies selling an additive perfume just in case.

I don't remember how the issue was resolved because all my vehicles were generally over 20 years old and cat-less.

My new stuff doesn't stink other than the diesel smell.
