Does blood smell like rust? I never noticed! It must be the iron.

I was trying to avoid this 'like' repetition.
Was the way I wrote 'too' wrong?

Not really - I just thought it sounded more natural this way (less formal).

I did another edit to avoid the repetition of "like" as you said. I hope you like it.
