I believe the answer is:

tangier

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'more pungent' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'smelling moroccan port' is the second definition.
'tangier' can be an answer for 'port' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'smelling moroccan' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tangier that I've seen before include "North African port" , "More piquant - Moroccan port" , "with a spicier taste?" , "Rather spicy" , "Moroccan seaport opposite Gibraltar" .)
