Narrative:
With 15 minutes left in flight; we took our jumpseats and noticed once we sat a strong pungent smell that smelled cheesy and musty coming through the cabin. I notified the other fas (flight attendants) and they also smelled it. Smell continued until the boarding door was opened. My throat was burning and a headache came about.
