My nose has a foul smell in it. i don't have any ill symptoms. what could cause this?

Hmmm: Well; your symptoms could be from a variety of causes: atypical reflux disease; nasolaryngeal reflux, someone close to you wearing a fragrance that is malodorous to you, etc. My advice is to eliminate the environmental things and if your symptoms persist to check in with your doctor for a check-up; he/she will sniff out the problem. :).
