Im pretty sure farts smell worse from water because your nose is moist most of the time because it requires moisture to trap the scent molecules as well as transmit the signature of them to the cell (notice in the middle of winter, you cant smell much, but on amuggy day, the world is alive with smells)

basically, if your nose is dry, you cant smell as well anyway. Well, in the water, that stinker is collecting a bit more moisture, making it easier for your nose to detect. so they dont actually smell worse, they smell "clearer". I know, it's gross.
