A member asked:
I keep smelling a fruity sweet smell and it wont go away ive also lost my sense of smell for nearly 2 years?

This classically happens in diabetic acidosis & some other metabolic disorders that apparently doesn't appear to apply to you. Otherwise this could be an olfactory hallucination. A neurootolaryngologist at a university hospital department of otolaryngology may be worth consulting for evaluation and advice.
