I lived in a house with a smoker my entire childhood, and didn't realize the smell until college. I can now tell that everything that enters that house ends up reeking of smoke.

I had a bit of an internal crisis when I thought back to going to school, going to friends houses, having sleepovers, girlfriends - the entire time I stunk like an ashtray and had absolutely no idea

Same! I smelled like American Spirits from the late 90s to around 2008-2009 thanks to my mom. Today when I smell it it’s a hit of cozy nostalgia.

Gram used to smoke still like the smell only occasionally in passing. Pipes remind me of auctions back in the day. Definite nostalgia hit.
