From Latin nidor.
nidor (countable and uncountable, plural nidors)
From Proto-Italic *knīdōs or *kneydōs, an abstract noun in *-ōs (> Latin -or) from a root *kneyd- (“to scratch”), or alternatively *kniHd-. Potential cognates include Ancient Greek κνῑ́ση (knī́sē, “smell of roasting fat”) (Homeric), κνῖσα (knîsa) (Attic), κνίζω (knízō, “to scratch”), κνῑ́δη (knī́dē, “nettle”), Icelandic hniss n (“strong smell (from cooking)”).
For the semantic development, Beekes compares the difference in meaning between English stink and Gothic stigqan (“to clash”).
