This is actually quite a common thing to happen when the bottles are nearly empty, nothing to do with the cooker, All I can put it down to is that the added smell to the gas is more concentrated when it reaches the bottom of the bottle so lingers more after use

It is allowed but only with butane, propane is not allowed indoors or even in your garage or shed.
