What Could Be The Cause Of Strange Smell From Nose?

I have a strange chalky/ musty/ fatty smell in my nose. I ve smelt everything I m wearing, have tried spraying myself with deodorant, but it doesn t appear to be in my clothing. I have been treating my nose with topical antibiotics, so could be that, but have been using the cream for a while, so what might be happening?

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of the sinusitis, you may experiencing bad smell from nose, this could be due to congestion, again the cause would be sinusitis, if I would be your doctor then I would treat this condition with Tab Loratidine and pseudoephedrine three time in day, nasal spray of saline would be much helpful, hope this helps.
I find this answer helpful
