Hi there,

when you smell the fuel next, take a note of what is going on around you. Have you just filled up? is a window open? window closed and vent on outside air? Smell worse front/ back/left side/right side. any fuel stain on body around filler? Very strong smell under bonnet or in boot? (that should be hood and trunk for you i think) have a look and re post your results and it may help pin point cause.
