Fish do not have noses, but they do have nostrils that are used for smelling and not for breathing

Yes, fish have a sense of smell, but they don't have traditional noses like humans. Instead, they have nostrils called nares that are used for both smell and respiration. Fish use their sense of smell to detect food, identify potential mates, and navigate their environment.

They do have openings on the face that allow them to smell, but these are called "nares" in fish. It's a little different in fish, which don't have the same set of sensory organs as mammals.
