from the first ref I posted:
"「地雷臭」(じらいしゅう) とは、関わったり近づくと酷い目に遭う、不幸になってし
まう…という意味の若者言葉、地雷 を予感させる臭い、雰囲気や空気のことです。 例
えば出来の悪いダメな ゲーム を 「地雷ゲーム」(地雷ゲー) などと呼びますが、
「地雷臭がする」 といった場合には、買う前からそうしたゲームであるのが何となく分
かる…その兆候を見る人が見ればわかる…といった意味となります。"
Isn't that pretty much a confirmation from a NSJ? I came 
across it in a product review on amazon (I think it was a 
camera of some kind)

Meaning needs to be confirmed by an NSJ, otherwise I think it should be dropped.
