?phantosmia ?: I am not sure what is going on but sometimes people do smell odors that aren't actually present. The smells are usually unpleasant like cigarette smoke, spoiled food or chemicals. Possible causes include colds, allergies, sinus infections, nasal polyps, dental issues & migraine headaches. See: https://www.healthline.com/health/phantosmia#common-causes
