    Where do smells go?

    Lets say a skunk sprays and it gets stinky for a bit. Then the smellll goes away. Where did the smell go?
    Are all smells trapped some place? Do they all exist but are masked by smells other things put off?
    Does smell rise like hot air?

    but where do they go?
    If they just drift off then you'd think they'd have accumulated over the years.
    Is the world smellier now than it was 10 years ago?

    I imagine the active agent in the chemical in skunk spray emitting the smell dies off thus cutting off the smell.
