Diesel Regen Smells

So how many of you catch a whiff of diesel/ regen at times in the cab? Is this just a issue with newer emissions trucks? The Titan XD is known to have the smell problem but riding in my BIL's 2016 Duramax over the weekend and I could smell it. It was not strong or constant but it was there occasionally. My BIL said he didn't smell anything.

I could always notice a regen by smell before I noticed the change in engine tone or seeing it on the EVIC.
