What is the appearance of normal period blood

So I'm just wondering if it's normal to have a lot of clumps in period blood. On day 1 of my period there was a lot of clumps, I could even feel the texture of the clumps as they were released from me (ew IK). The clumps were very dark, they looked black and mushy, almost like the appearance of wet soil. The clumps were surrounded by the blood. On the second day the clumps were more stretchy and a lot like goo. They were also dark in colour. On the second day their were also less clumps. So is this normal? Also this isn't to do with the overall question but normally my period has a certain smell, but this time round it has no scent what so ever, is this due to the scented pads I'm using?
