Clove smokes were interesting, but harsh on the throat without a good filter. Plus, the smell was overwhelming. It took about two machine washes to remove the aroma out of my Levis and denim jacket of that time. That’s also why I don’t allow incense in my apartment.
Some herbs have a nice fragrance, but are loaded with natural resins, and if highly concentrated, will become absorbed in soft materials. Rugs, drapes and upholstered furniture. Rosemary, lavender and spearmint are the same way.
A little goes a long way.
I don’t smoke but I do appreciate your taking the time to explain a bit about the clove tobacco as compared to regular tobacco. Neat facts.
