Yes, "sweet-smelling" should be hyphenated when used as a compound adjective before a noun, such as in "a sweet-smelling flower." The hyphen helps clarify that the two words work together to describe the noun. However, if it appears after the noun, as in "the flower is sweet smelling," the hyphen is not necessary.
