Yep. "Damn, that shit smells skunky!" is generally an observation that it smells as though it's high quality. The similarity to the smell of a skunk is certainly there, though personally I don't find it nearly as offensive as driving past a roadkill skunk, and further the scent doesn't stick around for very long at all (unlike the smell of tobacco, which I believe is due to the fact that the tar content of marijuana smoke is significantly lower than tobacco, so it isn't as 'sticky').
