soldering advice?

Recently a reader asked the following question, and I've no idea what to recommend. How about you?

"I've been bitten by the soldering bug! But my finished charms smell yucky. How do I get rid of that, since no one would want to smell this way if they were wearing it? Did I do something wrong?"

What could it be? Cheap or old solder? Exceedingly high temps? Bad flux? We're open for suggestions...
