Yes, cardboard. Corrugated cardboard boxes have a certain smell, and the more boxes in a space you have, the more noticeable it is. Two constituents of cardboard’s scent, 4-methylphenol and 4-ethylphenol, have a “horse stable-like, fecal” smell (these are the culprits for making cardboard smell like "poop").
