You're not imagining it
I often used to grind up a couple loads in my sister's Maytag TL so I could use her outdoor lines. She always tends to overdo the fabric softener. ALL my loads would smell like that! Then she would bitch to me that HER next loads smelled like Clorox. Machines will absorb odors and hold them for a long time.

If the previous owner used liquid detergents exclusively you may have a build up on the outer tub inside the machine. We had this problem with ours after we used liquid detergents for awhile. | ||

 Can you post a picture of the washer? Many here can help you remove the top (or cabinet) and get to the insides of the machine for a thorough cleaning.
Can you detect the smell when you put your head at the top of the washer opening when it's empty and off?
It could just be the difference in detergent to water dosing that makes the difference. There were a few scents of detergent that Mike (UK) sent over a few years back that I did not like in a top loading washer but were just fine when used in a f/l. | ||
