Why does aging cheese make it taste different but aging milk makes it spoil?

Question

I don’t understand since to my knowledge they’re very similar compounds. Is something removed from the milk during the cheesemaking process that affects how it acts as it ages? Milk tends to go bad within a month but cheese can be aged for several years without becoming dangerous to consume.

Aging milk and then shaking it makes it different. It is called Laben/l’ben. A nectar in North Africa.
