hi well come to hvm.
Dark vomit mustbe due to haemetemesis.Vanilla smell could be due to some thing he
has consumed like vanilla prior to death which has not remained in the stomach.This
is apossibility only and just guess work

THanks for the query
Eating vanilla and vomiting it out will smell like vanilla. Otherwise clotted blodd does smell different but not like vanilla. What was the cause of death? WHat were his co morbodities?
