No one smells this and I am suffering

Maybe you can give some direction. My mom and dad have been married over 40 years and for the last year and a half, my mom keeps complaining of a strong odor coming from my dad, but no one else smells it.  He has been tested for all kinds of things, so has she from allergy testing to an ENT.  The ENT said her nasal passages are inflamed.  The odor goes away when he is not with her.  Her eyes burn, chest hurts and she feels terrible and is suffering and may have to move out and live separately.  Please help us figure out where to go from here.  This is devastating to the entire family!  Thanks for reading, I look forward to any recommendation you may have.
