Sniff it vs smell it.

He played all day long and his shirt was really wet.

He doesn't want to take off his shirt.

I took off his shirt and let him sniff.

“Sniff it. Does it smell good?"

"Smell it. Does it smell good?"

Are they the different meaning sniff and smell? Which word should I use as the context above?
