It may be a mildew smell from the HVAC system. Water collects in the evap case and when you shut the engine off the water stands there and doesnt drain all the way. The dealer can program the HVAC system for the blower to come on every so often for a few seconds after you shut the engine off. That will dry the water out and get rid of the smell. It's called an afterblow feature. And some vehicles already have that peature enabled. Some don't. Talk to your dealer about your complaints.
