Jack up the car, remove the plastic cover under the front of the engine and look at the bottom of the water pump and thermostat to see if there is any dried coolant.
Thinking back a little to before I replaced mine, I had a slight coolant smell every now and then and I did not see any level change in the tank. It turned out I had a very small shaft seal leak that got worse over time .
If you see any dried coolant, clean it off and check again in a few days assuming you have driven the car a bit
