My guess is that it spoiled on you. What you were probablly smelling was ammonia, lots of foods that rot will begin to give off naturally occurring ammonia as a by-broduct of the decomposers doing their job. Although I have not specifically heard of coconuts doing this, I think its a good guess.
If you still smell it on a fresh one, then it may just be your sniffer. Coconuts do have a rather strong/distinctive odor, and your brain may just be crossing its signals.
