What do you call the air that comes out of your nose? (Air from your mouth is breath)?

Question

If the air that comes from your mouth is called breath, than what do you call the air that comes out of your nose?

Okay, so if the air coming out of your mouth is nice and clean, but the air coming out of your nose stinks, then you'd say "Hey your carbon dioxide smells!" Doesn't really sound like that great of an answer when I put it like that, eh? You could probably get closer with, "Hey your nose breath smells!" I don't believe such word exists either, but I'm sure it must in another language. Still waiting a better answer.

Answer 1

It's still breath regardless of where it comes out because you breathe it in and out.

Answer 2

Carbon Dioxide?

Answer 3

Dragon breath
