More sweet is right in my opinion because smell is a verb relating to the five senses hence verb will be qualified by an adjective not by an adverb so I think ''more sweetly'' is right.

It can't be sweeter.
Sweeter can be used when there is a comparison between two things. In this sentences fragrance of garden is comparing with all. So I think Superlative degree should be used.

Here error in "sweetly" because its meaning is like "Nicely" but the sentence does not carry such meaning so we think about verb "smell" it is called Quasi-passive verb a it takes an adjective after itself so "sweeter" is appropriate.
