My only experience with it was when a friend got durian gummies on a road trip. We figured it'd be the most palatable way to try the flavor.
Each gummy was individually wrapped, but as soon as we opened the big bag the smell was intense in the car and almost too much. We opened a single gummy and we all had to roll our windows down as the stench of toes and death was filling the car from the candy. We tried taking nibbles, but the flavor was identical to the smell and we all had to pull over and spit it out. We had to throw them all away.
And that was 90% sugar, I cannot imagine that fruit in its raw form.
I've only had it a couple times, but it only tasted slightly like it smelled. Not particularly pleasant, but not terrible either.
