3. Essential oils
If you like essential oils and have them in your home, make sure to include them in your “smell test.” Carl Philpott suggests smelling one essential oil every day as a barometer.
“Spray some of the liquid on a fragrance strip or a tissue and hold underneath your nose and inhale,” he added.
4. Shampoo
Another item that most people have in their homes is shampoo. If you’re having a shower and you can’t feel the scent of the shampoo you’re always using, then maybe it’s time to get tested for COVID-19.
Philpott suggests sniffing a coconut shampoo just to be sure. If you can’t feel the fragrance of the shampoo at all, make sure to talk to your doctor.
5. Citrus
Lastly, but not least, citrus is also a good indicator of COVID-19. You can use lemons, oranges, or limes, and if you can’t feel the smell or the taste, then you’re probably infected with COVID-19.

I can smell all of it.
Coffee nauseates me. Can’t stand the smell of it. Yes I can still smell it when it’s around but not in my house
