Pink Pagoda tree smell

My neighbour has a Pink Pagoda which is right next to my path and not far from my front door.  It is nearly finished flowering and absolutely stinks.  Is there anything I can do?

    Hello and welcome to the forum 😊 

    If the flowers are nearly finished the scent, which some folk find pleasant, will soon be over.  👍 

    Just a thought, have you always found this particular scent unpleasant?  It’s just that some folk have found that, since Covid, some formerly pleasant smells now make them feel nauseous. A friend of mine has had this happen to her … but the problem is beginning to wane now.  There is a medical term for it. 

    ETA … found it … parosmia…
