Default Old smelling boxwood

Hi group,

Although mostly lurking, do I have a question now:
some 100 + year old peaces of boxwood are waiting to be turned into some
form. They do have a strong odour, like you can sometimes in old churches.
Does anyone have an idea if this is caused by age, or can it be some kind of
insecticide? Just to be safe before making al lot of dust...

Excuse me for bad English, that and spelling mistakes are all put in by my
