You CAN be aware of a hallucination. Most people aren't but from what I can tell? This smell has been around SO long you can't help but know it isn't real! So don't discount it so quickly.
My pdoc gave me a paper to see a neurologist to figure out if my olfactory hallucinations are a side-effect of seizures. While most seizures are immediately followed or preceded by a smell that doesn't last very long, sometimes you can get what's called post-ictal psychosis which can last up to 6 months. So I'd definitely consult your regular doctor or a therapist/pdoc if you already have one. There can be very many things that cause hallucinations.
Good luck!
