Le bruit et l'odeur is the second studio album of the French rock group Zebda, released in 1995.

With this album, the group confirmed their social focus by adding engaging samples to their guitar-driven music. The album title is a reference to a politically-incorrect statement made during a speech by French president Jacques Chirac (known as Le bruit et l'odeur) which was not easily forgotten by many. This album explores how far life in France at the end of the 20th Century has come, especially in the south of France.
