Instead, the molecule distorts the perception of smell by suppressing olfactory" This is an over-interpretation of the paper and can obviously not be true (e.g. homeopathic concentrations) as even discussed in the paper itself. The paper uses newt (!) olfactory epithelium, no surprise that they smell different things than humans.

There is no reason to believe it could be psychoactive as even small sidechain substitutions abolish MDMA activity. Also, M-ALPHA was not clearly described as being empathogenic.
