No offense but if you're going to answer, please do so with serious
responses. It doesn't take a rocket-scientist to figure out that

Then omit number one. The rest are reasonable explanations, plus the
possibility that you may have one of the many forms of anosmia.
Usually it is just age, but sometimes changes in the sense of smell
are the first symptoms of a brain tumor.

Have a nice day.
