well. in my opinion, i read this article on the internet, which i googled the question, its related to paranormal stuff. but this is not a fact, just an article i read. usually means a sign maybe? like someone that died really close to you is there maybe?

You could be having olfactory hallucinations, which are basically sensory related events where you smell or notice something through smell that is not there.

If you are smelling pie 24/7 and it is a constant bother to you, you should talk to your doctor. Otherwise don't worry about it, who doesn't like to smell apple pie every so often?

It is a hallucination, there is nothing wrong with having them as long as they don't effect you negatively.

sometimes you can confuse smells with one another.. you smell something and your brain says something different.. it happens, get something be it a candle or a car fresh or something and put it in the area where you smell the scent the strongest, i bet it will go away

Apple pie is good but when I smell It and its not there it makes sick of it. I haven't got a good smell in about 8 hours but last night I had good dreams but woke up several times scared and sweating like I had bad dreams.

Surround yourself in apple pie for a week. Then take a bath.

Humans dont have an olfactory lobe, the Telencephalon of humans develops into the cerebrum
