There are lots of varieties of Durian that bring out all those flavors (and possibly more) to various degrees. Supposedly some of them can be good if you acclimate and enjoy funky fruit.

The small dehydrated piece a friend brought me from Vietnam recently had tasted like if you went to a pizza joint and mixed the little containers of garlic butter and bleu cheese sauce, then added some pineapple and gasoline and a hint of vanilla custard for good measure. It was extremely weird and mostly reminded me of garbage. And for the rest of the day, the smallest burp brought back its vile ghost.

I've only had it once and I don't know what variety it was, but despite the smell it just tasted kinda like a honeydew. There was no bitterness or anything
