Try clean out the interior air filter, or even check under the hood to see if anything got caught under there. it happend to my brothers car and we just took a bottle of air freshener and sprayed it down the vents. it seemed to make the smell go away

Seems like your cabin filter is dirty, and if you haven't even seen it, most likely it's still the original one. You can buy a new filter for about $30, or the resuable blitz filter for about $40 I believe.
