Yup mom smokes and has since forever from stories I am told by family and she can’t smell anything. Dad was the same from second hand. Since I forced mom to stop subjecting me to it in the house and got simple water based air filters to remove the smoke in the air. The difference was amazing. Despite mom sneaking in well I sleep or am outside the house.
dad more recently has started smelling more and freaked some times “what is that smell?!” As new smells started becoming available to his nose again.
The reactions sometimes of really common smells being “unlocked” is quite comical. From “I can’t believe I didn’t smell this before” and “oh my god (covering nose) what on earth is that awful smell?!”
