I am convinced that strong, unpleasant odors cause me to have seizures.Strong perfume smells make me have seizures. It never bothered me until about 3 years after I was diagnosed with epilepsy. For me, new "triggers" have made themselves known every few years, so this may just be a new one for you.

Strong odors especially perfume or chemicals will trigger a seizures for me. I don't hear all that well because of tinnitus but loud noise hurts my ears. I know that sounds weird.
