Hi! Welcome to HCM! You did not mention your age and gender. I can understand your problem, I am of the opinion that you are suffering from a disorder of odor perception known as parosmia or Olfactory hallucination. Potential causes of this abnormality could be a brain tumor, inflammation, stroke, or an injury following head trauma. To rule out these causes you must see your doctor.
