Had a similar experience with ammonia. Synthesizing a test sample of AP from
perchloric acid & conc aqueous ammonia. Mixed the 2 together and got the
subtlest whiff of the reaction. POW!... it was like a fist extending out from
the beaker.

I got a nose full of high-conc formic once. Kicks like a mule. I don't
remember the exact chemical reason for futzing with the stuff, only
that it was involved in the process of recovering gold metal from
plasma-spec carrier solution.
