Sinus problems can cause this smell, maybe an infection.  Has she had it for a while, if not maybe a Covid test would be a sensible precaution.

Also if there is a low infection in a tooth it can leak which causes, 4 me, a metal taste.

I have a thread here, 'OH errrr' I think I called it  ::)

Is your friend on any medication?
