Amonia is a new one, I agree they smell of mouse which isn't pleasant but they don't smell bad unless they burst.

i say amonia, but it was a wee smell but it really reeked like amonia, as if it was giving off gas, i think i will chuck the whole bag, i have 4 bags of fluffs from different shops, so i have plenty more. x
