Ditto. Not sweet smelling like coolant. Seemed to be more white/grey than oil smoke. Could be from extra hot cat, waiting for 5 to 10 min to start, and perhaps an extra fuel dump at startup?? My schnozz tells me it smelled like hot catalytic converter rather than oil or coolant (very chemical, similar to cat smells from other cars). Maybe a shutdown would be prudent after a quick run, rather than leaving it running. I ran through the forums and couldn't get the any hits/posts that were identical/close. However, your description fits the bill exactly, especially with the hot runs of the enduro. Never on cold start, and this is the only time its happened. 8300 miles on the odo.
