This is a tricky one!
Basically it relay depends on what the 'Stool' is made of i.e. Plastic & Metal are basically odourless. Whereas 'Pine' smells totaly different to 'Oak'.
However if you are talking 'S**t' there is a well proven Smell Identification Control Chart which is based on age.
5 yrs to 25 yrs : smells of Macdonalds
25yrs to 50 yrs : smells of Tesco ready Meals.
50yrs to 70 yrs : smells of Sprouts & Eggs
70 yrs onwards : smells of Death!

It is apparently skatole (3-methylindole) which is a breakdown product from haemoglobin.
Apparently this compound is used in small amounts to flavour vanilla ice cream!
