For many (most ?) people who learn to like durian, a switch happens inside the brain, and the smell becomes appetizing. The first few times I encountered durian, I thought the smell was vile - but I’ve become a durian lover eventually, and they smell delicious to me now.
Funny enough I also like stinky cheeses, but still find them stinky (even though I like the taste) - for some reason it’s different with fruit.

I love stinky cheese and I love the smell. I also love every fruit I’ve ever tasted, but the smell of durian never changed for me.
