Well, at least you've eliminated the wife 'cos she was out of the house when it appeared the one time. And yes, old chimneys can sometimes smell pretty foul, especially (although not invariably) if they've been bricked up, it's the residual smell from the sulphurous coal they used to burn in those far off days. From your description of the smell as being fart-like - farts smell of bad eggs, sulpherous, and it's usually worst just after rain, when the dampness seeps into the brick. There you go, total exoneration of wife!
