Question about English (US)
How would you say こもった匂いがする in English?
For example, assume you kept your windows and doors close for a month. Your house must smell like dust, foods, garbage, people's smell, and many other things.
Literally, it smells like it was closed for a long time, and it's never a nice smell.
How to use: 「暖房をつけた部屋の窓を一日中閉めっぱなしにしていたから、こもった匂いになってしまった。すぐに窓を開けなければ。」

I had left the heater on with the window closed for the whole day, so the room got really stuffy and musty smelling. I had to open the window right away.
