Never done that myself, but I can imagine it didn't smell too great.
But, what I *do* remember "vividly" is when I left a "sachet" (500ml
sealed plastic bag) of milk in the car. It eventually "popped" and
leaked all over the carpet in the boot (trunk) and quietly went
"rotten". Ewwwww. I had to have a professional car "valet" done to get
rid of the smell... and even after that, on "damp" days I could still
smell it. I eventually replaced the carpeting (I had to, I don't think I
could have 'traded in' car if I hadn't done that).
