It releases the smell. It stays around in the room.

I can’t smell ants but I can smell roaches. Any house or restaurant I walk into that has that signature roach scent, I do a 180° and leave.
As to describe the scent of roaches: Pungent, wet/moldy towel smell, worse when they’re dead.

We need people like you as health inspectors.

You know, I feel like I know that smell as well. Not anywhere NEAR as pungent as the ant smell, but I’ve been in some… Unfortunate situations with enough roaches that I can conjure up that smell.

Well, now I can’t help but wonder if burning them is better or worse.

Probably better, I’ve never tried it. I just imagine a bunch of tiny fireballs running around.
