Default clutch is smelling

I've had a new clutch fitted 2weeks ago I've done 150miles now, I can sometimes smell burning from the clutch, only when i reverse a little or pull of slowly, 1st thought it could be me but in getting a little worryed now any help would be helpful. It doesn't slip at all and the clutch bite seems lower then before
