An AI from a New Zealand grocery chain gave one user a recipe for an “Aromatic Water Mix” that included bleach and ammonia as ingredients.

It’s chloramine, not mustard gas. The latter has sulfur in it, which neither bleach nor ammonia contain.

Yep. Chloramine is the eye-stinging stink of dirty swimming pools, too: nitrogenous compounds from human body fluids (sweat, urine, etc.) react with chlorine too.

aromatic adjective ar·​o·​mat·​ic ˌa-rə-ˈma-tik ˌer-ə- 1 : of, relating to, or having aroma: a : having a noticeable and pleasant smell : FRAGRANT aromatic herbs aromatic wines b : having a strong smell The peat burns with a pungently aromatic smoke. c : having a distinctive quality

I mean… If we are going with definition 1.b… It’s not wrong. It is an aromatic water mixture. It’s just not an aroma that you want.

Mum used to make this for us when we were too poor for actual mustard.
