Phantosmia: Smell hallucinations can be associated with specific medication and neurological conditions. Phantosmia may be caused by a head injury or upper respiratory infection. It can also be caused by temporal lobe seizures, inflamed sinuses, brain tumors and Parkinson's disease. Make sure to see your GP to discuss this condition and initiate a thorough exam and tests.
