Smelly Palm Oil

there is a kind of palm oil that is most common in the western states(nigeria).the oil gives off a bad smell whenever u’re using it in cooking. the yoruba’s(I mean no offence, please) always use it, at home, and even in their buka’s and restaurants. Palm oil from the east doesn’t smell like that, infact, when I was serving in ogun state, anytime I go to the market, I  buy palm oil only from the igbo market women, ’because they bring theirs from the east. I just want to know, whats responsible for that smell, what causes it. Some people say its differences in the processing method of the palm fruits, if so ,how? or is it that it’s a different specie of palm tree that grows in the east?  

i know that chemicals are added to some palm oils to make it redder and attractive to the eye. that could explain the strange smell. 

smell or no smell i need some for my puter ASAP! 

There is a brand of palm oil that smells funny and tastes a bit like soap!
