I know why this is: it’s because my mom, the only family member that I was close with, smoked a whole bunch, and so I have positive childhood associations.
Whether it be the active smell of somebody who’s smoking nearby or the lingering scent that’s left or that sticks around in place where people smoke frequently, such as bars or hallways or similar, I like it a lot.
Yet even so, I was actually stunned when I found that there are very few people who agree, and many are the folks who think that it smells bad.
Pulled up my canoe to a friendly guy fishing our local swamp. Had a nice chat. Damn, when he lit up, my brain screamed, “NICE”.
But I don’t really want a cig, just loved the smell, old memories.
For that matter, a woman who’s a little smoky with liquor on her breath, I get SPRUNG. Old memories, “a smell of wine and cheap perfume…”
Yeah. Perfume and smoke does it for me as well. Sweet liquor on the breath. Smells like trouble.
Yeah. Same here. Smoked for 30 years. Quit 5 years ago but I do like hanging around the smoke for a few minutes.
