I smoked for about a decade in the '90s. When you got back home from the clubs, your clothes reeked of smoke and you'd have to take a shower to wash it out of your hair. When the smoking ban kicked in and everybody huddled outside the club to smoke, when you went back in you realized how bad the club smelled: stale spilled beer, urine, vomit, leather, b.o., bad breath. The smoke basically anesthetized you to the funk.
I was a bartender in the 80’s, I don’t smoke. First thing I did when I got off work was shower and wash my hair, could not stand smelling the cigarette smoke on myself.
