I dunno need more clues. What the other bro suggest seems reasonable. U can get an experiencd plumber to come and see. He probably may know when he is there. But be careful of those that cooked up a story and try chop you. Another thing is, is the condo still under warranty? If due to structure defect, get them to come and dreams rectify.

I have a Friend whom encountered a similar situation. At the end he engaged a plumber and found the toilet bowl's seal was damaged. Change seal and reinstalled no more smell.

The seal is called Pan collar.

Typical problem for poor WC installation. You wont see any leaking water or waste but can be very affected by the smell as there isnt a perfect seal to protect you against the sewer system smell.
