Leak?
Anti Freeze, Sweet Smell in cab.
I've checked the floorboards carpet at the firewall, both sides.
I' don't see or feel any wetness.
Checked radiator seems to be filled normally. no need to add anti freeze.
Could it be something else.

Chances are you have a very small pinhole in the heater core. That is the first thing I would check.

I agree. I had the same problem in mine. Also there is a good chance that over time the hole could get bigger and you will start to have coolant pool up on the passenger side floorboard
