Default Toilet odor from septic?

We have a standard in ground septic system. About 2 or 3 years after
installing a new toilet (over the concrete slab) it started to emit a
septic-type odor that lasts for weeks and then fades away only to come back
again. We can't seem to trace it and the bowl is clean. Could septic odor be
coming through a wax seal? Thanks in advance.
