Sean,
Phantosmia is extremely annoying, it is making it hard to breathe at times because I am allergic to cigarette smoke and it feels as if someone is in front of me blowing smoke in my face. It can happen for hours at a time.
The Lyrica and also Cymbalta which has been touted as a fibromyalgia remedy both seem to act with serotonin, at least thats what I've been told and read. I could have wrong info of course.

I have never heard of Phantosmia before you mentioned it; through looking up the term it looks like a nightmare condition to deal with.
