Neighbor blames me for bad odor.

My downstairs neighbor has been blaming me for a bad odor starting April 20th (I moved in March 28th). I am certain it is not from me, as no other tenants have expressed this when I asked, and she even invited my partner into her apartment to show the smell (it smelled like nothing). I do my own gel nails and sometimes my friends, maybe a couple hours a week, and after she somehow got that knowledge, she keeps alerting management that I am responsible for the odor, and that I am using harsh chemicals to produce that. Gel has nearly NO SMELL, and I went to my next door neighbor to ask if they smelled anything, which they said they did not. Management texted me earlier asking (not demanding) me to stop doing nails, and I replied offering to have them take a look around to see if there is any smell. I have also not done any nails in several days. This has been going on for a couple weeks now with this phantom odor, and I am wondering if management can even do anything about this? I am worried if she keeps complaining they might try to evict.
