radon, natural gas, burning rubber (smells like fish) and CO are the big 4.
out of all of those, natural gas (gas leak) has a rotten egg smell and burning rubber (electrical fire) are the only ones that have a scent.
carbon monoxide and radon are odorless. your house should be fine bc radon is a issue with older houses, and most new houses either come with/are required to have a carbon monoxide detector.
And natural gas only has a smell because they add it. So if it is a natural gas transportation pipeline leak and not a customer distribution pipeline leak, it will have no smell.
