I just recently noticed that when I turn my AC on it sometimes shoots out a very faint fog out for about 4-5 seconds. My old car did that with no smell so I assumed it was normal.

The refrigerant it's self has no odour. But... there is a lubricant that is mixed with it. Had a leak once and it sort of smelled like unscented hairspray (seen it described that way on another forum years ago as well). Your description of the odour is sort of similar so I would get the AC system checked out.
