...is most likely a leaky heater core, something that is common in these cars (my 1994 CS has it too).
There is a lively debate about the advisability of using the bar leak stuff--some people swear by it and others think it's evil. There was a discussion here not so long ago (a month or two maybe).
My car has had the smell and presumably the leak for quite some time--a few years, I think.
