Airpods pro 2 tips have a weird smell
I recently bought the new Airpods Pro 2nd gen and i noticed the silicone tips have a weird smell. I read other questions talking about a chemical smell but this seems almost like olive smell if that makes sense.

Hello giofurlanetto,
If there is a smell from your AirPod tips, then we'd recommend using these steps to clean them: How to clean your AirPods, AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, and EarPods - Apple Support
Clean the ear tips of your AirPods Pro
1. If any water has accumulated in the ear tip, tap the AirPod on a soft, dry, lint-free cloth with the ear tip opening facing downward to remove.
2. Pull off the ear tips from each AirPod and rinse the ear tips with water. Don't use soap or other household cleaners.
3. Wipe the ear tips with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Make sure that the ear tips are completely dry before reattaching to each AirPod.
4. Click the ear tips back on each AirPod. The ear tips are oval shaped, so make sure that you align them before you click them back on.
Should you continue to have this concern, then you may want to contact Apple Support
They'll need to take it from here.
Wishing you well, take care.
