My old next door neighbor had a compost toilet and I didn't notice any smell, even inside of it. I also stayed at an AirBnb with one that didn't smell. I'm sure they can smell awful but it certainly depends.
I imagine it's similar to a yard waste compost pile. If it's not done right the smell can get pretty bad, but a proper one should have little to no problem with smell.

- minsc__and__boo 5y agoNothing in the previous comments contradicts that.
