because oil is made through an organic process, and parafin is made from oil, and a by-product of the organic process that took millions of years to happen is gas....i dunno, just throwing it out there?

Natural gas, I.e. methane has no odour. An artificial smell is put on it so you notice a leak. The smell however is nothing like I have smelt before, hence the question.

might be doing gas works near your house, sometimes they just cut the pipe and hook you up to a canister of paraffin, standard protocol mate
