From your crush
From a crush, it's often a playful 'I'm onto you' kind of vibe, especially if you've been teasing them or dropping hints. He could be 'sniffing out' if you like him back, or subtly complimenting something he 'smells' good about you (your perfume, your overall aura). It's usually flirty curiosity.
