We had a (thankfully minor) fume even the other day; during pushback. A new 32N LEAP.
Engine start valve fault (like that never happens!!...) followed by a face full of the most awful body oder smell. It was a physical kick in the face smell; I certainly now understand how disorientating and aggressive these events can be. In flight this would have been very distressing.
