I conduct fit testing with the N95 and they do need to fit properly to work. Just to clarify, the N95 does not prevent you from smelling anything. If you taste the solution then the mask does not fit properly, either the nasal bridge needs to be better fitted around the nose, it's the wrong size, or you're just SOL and need a PAPR.

Personally, I failed with the hospital grade N95, but brought some in from home and passed with that 3M model. It is also recommended to be fit tested annually or after weight gain/loss of more than 10 lbs, as that may change how the mask fits.

Like it or not, masks and social distancing do work.
