smell after using N2O

Does it usually smell after using nitrous? Is it the nitrous im smelling? it goes away soon after I stop.

or is it my trans or motor? how can I tell? I figure if it was my trans I really wouldnt smell it cause its under the car and the smell would be going towards the back plus it was just rebuilt.

what could it be?

I never had a smell when I used nitrous on my car but, I have smelled other cars when they used it. it smelled kinda sweet but, I guess not really the best word for it. it is hard to explain. now maybe they had problems I don't know.

does yours smell like oil burning? or something getting hot?
