If it's a side-loading washer, you're not supposed to close the door all the way when it isn't in use. That's why it smelled.

Pretty sure this is true for all modern washers, ours is top load and it says leave door open when not in use.

Mine (Miele) actually says to close the door completely to reduce the possibility of small children or pets entering. We ignore that bit though.

Mine says not to close it to avoid mold and shit

It's annoying, but it's a trade-off for front-loaders being better at cleaning.
