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.
My real estate agent calls it “depersonalizing” the space. Remove all signs that it is occupied by humans with personalities. Make it like a furniture store.
Ideally we’ll do that to the whole world. Everything clean, grey, odorless.
Are flowers and rain also included as odors to be removed?
