A very bright light can damage your sight, and very loud sounds can do the same to your hearing. Can a very strong odour damage your sense of smell?

Both a bright light and a loud sound are high concentrations of energy, but a strong smell is a high concentration of particles. That means the smell can get saturated to the point that it really can't smell any stronger.

[edit]: any smell that would damage your olfactory sense receptors would likely do so at any concentration. Corrosive chemicals cause less damage at lower concentration but there is no point where the damage would suddenly start like it does with light and sound. Furthermore extreme concentrations of chemicals and particles tend to experience state changes so you could argue that a high density of smell might drown you, but if you stick your head in a bucket of liquid and inhale it probably won't be your sense of smell that is damaged.
