Smelly smells that smell smelly

So I've recently started to notice that my 06 Xterra's exhaust has started to make a chlorine/bleachy smell. I would assume it's just some new gas additive the companies put in it or whatever but I've learned to not assume. Has anyone had this? Is it that? Or is it something else completely?

Just smell? No smoke? Yes, I know its difficult to tell unless it's black this time of year but I had to ask. Is it sweet smelling at all?

Nothing more than what's average for cold weather. And it doesn't really smell sweet like you'd expect for coolant or something. Just smells like bleach

Bump... Still smells like bleach, but I just had an O2 sensor go, so that could be part of it.

I think it's just the winter blend of gas. My exhaust has a similar scent to it.

Interesting, I have also noticed the same smell as well.
