Is it true that early translations of the Bible mention God "smelling" sinners?

by DNASnatcher

This is something my girlfriend mentioned to me after it came up in an art history class (the class was focused on different representations of the senses throughout Western history). Apparently some early version of the Bible says that God can smell if you're a sinner. I've tried doing some googling, and while I've found a few biblical mentions of aroma, but I'm mostly sifting through useless stuff.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

You may want to ask on r/AcademicBiblical. They may have more expertise.
