Funny smell

[Newme]

I've read in several threads that it's important to smell the vape along with tasting it. But when I do that it just smells funny. It's hard to explain, but to me it has a slight chemical/urine smell. And I notice this with all flavors, including juices and prefilled cartos. I don't smell much of the flavor, but I do taste the flavor and it tastes fine, nothing strange. And I don't notice the chemical/urine scent when I don't purposely try to smell it. So, of course, I try not to smell the vapor, because I don't for it.

What exactly is that?

Hi Newme,

I haven't noticed this myself. What I do notice is that I CAN smell ... and that I don't personally stink of the stench of cigarettes! LOL I haven't even noticed a residual smell from the vapor ... but I will see if I can smell anything "off" the next time I vape.

Could be your juice?

I don't get a bad odor on the exhale when I vape my pipe. I can get the burnt atty smell/taste when the atty starts to get dry, but that's the only 'bad' smell I get.

I notice it with BWB, FSUSA, and the prefilled Bloog cartos. And I've used them in both Bloog cartos and V4L coolcarts.

Hello Newme,

What flavors exactly are you vaping? What I can tell you is that I know of 2 very smelly vapes and my hubby wont let me use those in the house lol. I am talking about Honey Flavors and Some Kona Coffee Flavors. They literally smell like cat piss to others around me. I try to vape those flavors all by my lonesome

Some RY4's have a cat piss smell too, my kids can't stand it. You are right with the honey really weird smelling.

I haven't noticed anything like that. It could be the flavors or juice brand you use. Or maybe your nose is particularly sensitive to smelling nicotine?

Mostly all menthols. But I notice it with all of them, including the FSUSA Chocolate covered cherry and their vanilla. And slightly with BWB's Cherry tobacco and Casablanca.

I thought maybe I was nuts, so I blew some of the smoke at my husband and asked him what it smelled like...he said urine. And I didn't tell him what I was smelling, so his opinion was completely unbiased.

Weird!

Cat urine smell doesn't sound like a relaxing vape

I think I'll avoid RY4

Is that what nicotine smells like?

strange.. i just noticed this with my juice too.. when i first got Belgium Waffle from Vapables.. it was great didn't really smell.. but now on the exhale it smells like a dirty homeless man/urine. What's up with that, I mean I love the waffle, but the exhale is just disgusting!! Help?

I have bought Honey from 2 different vendors....they both leave a bad smell. Even my husband (while he still smoked) said it stinks like urine !!

Must say I haven't noticed any unpleasant smell...in fact I love the way my office smells after I've been vaping and I come back inside, and at home I don't have to be burning incense all the time to get rid of the smell of analogues..
