I smoked a pack a day for 35 years. Quit cold turkey in 2007. Never looked back. Never missed them. Also, never knew how bad they smelled to others until I quit. I still love the smell of good pipe tobacco and expensive cigars, but cigarettes stink. Why is that?

I quit cold turkey in March of 1986.
My employer furnished me a new Chevy Caprice company car and I didn’t want to stink it up.

I quit in August '08 after 50 years, I was at 2 packs a day. If I'm close to cigarette smoke, it stinks but sometimes, at a distance, like in a parking lot, it can smell quite good to me. I have no idea why.

I smoked a pack a day for 20 years and quit cold turkey in 2003, but I still enjoy a blast of second hand smoke even now and then. I weaned myself off tobacco with second hand smoke and gummy worms.

The smell of tobacco on people is not very appealing, but I'd still rather smell that than cologne or perfume.
