@bakedbeans i smell an idea smell gives negative connotation so an idea over here can also be interpreted as bad intention

@bakedbeans It’s not negative.
It’s just an unusual way to say ‘sense’ or ‘feel’.

@bakedbeans It usually means the person thinks they have detected something that can't be seen.
In a classroom, if some children are disobeying teacher:
"Do I smell a mutiny?" (<< joking)
At work people are talking about a new way of doing something:
"I think I smell the beginning of an idea!"
