Do you like or dislike the smell of smoke?

[SMKNOMOR]

Now I really like the smell of smoke. Living here in China where about 80% of men smoke

How do others feel about the smell of smoke now?

Holy smokes!! 80% so thats where all the smog is coming from.

I cant stand the smell of smoke and even worse is talking face to face with someone who just smoked a cigarette or walking by someone who just did.

I didn't stop being a smoker, I just found a better smoke. Now, it's only been a couple of weeks, but I have no problem being around smokers, still like the smell of burning tobacco... just prefer the nicotine fix and flavor availability of vaping.

I've had a 'Support Smoking' ribbon magnet on the back of my car for years, and I ain't taking it off. I didn't quit, I upgraded.

I've always loved the smell of smoke, even before I started smoking. Still do, and smelling someone smoking is the only thing that really triggers a craving for me anymore.

 

[elationisfacile]

Yeah I still like it... it's the only time I get a craving. Especially if I've had a beer or too.

 

[Rysup]

smoke yes, butts no...

 

[keyraw]

I'm fine with the smoke... Kind of... still remember when i've been kicked out in the freezing cold to have a few puffs because someone in the room was a non-smoker who never stops talking how bad cigarette smoke is for his health and how he hates that smoke... So I try NOT to hate anything now... Just not bothered.

I have always been attracted to the smell of burning tobacco. Even as a kid, I can remember loving to take a whiff every time my mom lit up. Perhaps, that is the main reason why I started smoking in the first place.

Well, I can't stand it now. An ex-gf of mine came down to visit around New Year's, and we drove down to Mandeville for a party & then to New Orleans the next day & on home... about 9 total hours in the car with her. Every time she fired up a ...., I had to put the window down, and it was still pretty gross. Of course, I'll never openly complain; I spent 26 years stinking up everywhere I went, so I really don't have a right to.

When I first ordered juice, I thought it would be good to try the cig flavors. A few weeks into it now and I don't miss the smoke or flavor one bit

I'd much rather vape a Jolly Rancher or coffee etc

 

[dspin]

Still love the smell of cigars and pipes - was never crazy about the smell of cigs. Menthol smoke always made me ill.

 

[otrpu]

I avoid it when I can. JMHO

I agree, I can't stand the smell of it... My boyfriend still smokes and it is hard to kiss him and not smell it... He tries his hardest to get it off his hands, face, mouth, body... with cologne, washing his face and hands, brushing his teeth and using listerine, but I still smell it... I think it stinks

Only been vaping for a couple weeks and don't mind cigarette smoke. But prefer the hit off my ecig.

I always hated it, probably cause my dad was a chain smoker when i was very young. That smell permeated everything. I never really smoked analogs and I got my nic-feindin from dip so that might have something to do with it.

I remember when they passed the no-smoking inside law. Every night out at the bars before that would leave me reeking of smoke and my lungs would just hurt from being there, especially after 12 hrs in a nyc club. I can't say that I approve of PVs being lumped into that, but that definately made me happy.

Pipes are great. Cigars remind me of my grandpa and father. But cigs just plain annoy me.

Here in SKorea I think the smoking rate is similar to China's. You can still smoke in some restaurants, most bars, school campuses, bath houses (in certain sections), on he street, in your home, almost everywhere. I see people smoking in all of those places.

 

[Valiant4Funk]

It's kind of a love/hate relationship for me. I don't like smelling smoke when I'm inside, and i don't let my friends smoke in my car anymore. BUT, the smell of a good cigar on a moonlit spring night is quite amazing!

 

[Standpoint]

I still love the smell. I don't like the taste anymore, however. Fortunately smelling cigs does not make me smoke them.......

 

[eastman]

ive always hated the smell of smoke

 

[Empress Kitty]

I have always hated it, but when I was a smoker, I igored it. I would hug my mom and go ugh you stink lol mean I know but I was crazy with body spray and gum to hide the smell on myself.

Thanks for all the replies. I never expected to get so many, so fast. As a high school teacher, I'm in the strange position where I still don't feel comfortable using my e-cig in front of my students. Not at school anyway. But I still see Chinese teachers puffing away on their analogs and nobody cares about the smell. I have even seen them smoking in the classroom! I really hope the anti-smoking nazi mentality never comes here, because it's just nice to see people relaxed and happy.
