Default Petrol smell near carbon canister (EVAP)

I have terrible smell in my car while waiting at a traffic light. The smell comes from the carbon canister. The hoses look good (didn't remove the bumper, but had the car on a car lift). Perhaps the canister is full? Or there is a problem with the purge valve?
The car starts good, no problems running idle, just a terrible smell in the interieur.

Any good idea's?
