I had Covid-related anosmia for a few days, and it was very different from just being stuffed up and unable to smell/taste like with a regular cold. I could stand over e.g. a fire, and instead of smelling smoke, I had a sensation of smelling "nothingness."

I went so far as to take the bottle and squeeze air from it into my nose. I could feel the puff, but that was it. It was actually a little bit jarring. It was complete loss for a couple of days and got progressively better until back to normal a couple of weeks later.
