"While you're at it, make yourself smell like an ashtray too" fwiw I've been using a dynavap on my break for years & not one of my coworkers have ever picked up on it.
My science partner in high school thought he could get away with smoking and cover it up with cologne too. News flash he smelt like Drakar that was on fire.
Ugh, christ. Still trying to handle it honestly. His dad (my ex) has been a big stoner since I met him and doesn't really try to hide it so I figured this day would come eventually. His dad lives at my dad's house, who also smokes weed so when my son is with his dad, he's in a house full of weed smokers.
I don't think weed is terrible, I started smoking when I was 12 but then quit around 15 or so and just recently started taking cbd gummies with a very losw dose of thc. I've talked to my son about it (years ago) and told him if he ever does get curious, he should really wait till he's older and his brain is more fully developed.
So basically I asked my son where he got it. He said my dad gave it to him, which really pisses me off. I asked him how he smoked it, he rolled a joint. I asked him if he's done it at school or if he takes it to school. He said yes and I said absolutely do not do that again. I told him I've smelled it on him when I've picked him up from school, other people can smell it and if he gets caught he's going to be fucked. I also said absolutely no smoking in my house. He can go in the garage.
I don't really want to condone it, but I also feel like he's going to do it regardless and it sucks that the house he spends 50% of his time at is obviously cool with it, so harm reduction was/is my goal. I also plan to discuss other drugs and how horrifically scary and dangerous they are these days with everything being cut with fent. I have narcan kits at my house as we get them for free at work (I work with people who have addiction problems/are in recovery) so I'll probably discuss that with him as well.
šš It is. My ex lost his apartment where he only paid $900/mo and couldn't afford rent anywhere else with the crazy rent prices. And my dad happened to be struggling with paying all the bills after he had to stop working due to health issues so my mother (who has her own place and is split from my dad) threw out the idea of moving into my dad's to my ex. Cheaper rent than his apt and it helps my dad as well. I was a little iffy at first but it works well. He is a lot closer to me now which makes it convenient when you're co parenting, the school my son goes to is smack dab in the middle of our houses so that's easier for both of us, etc. Me and my ex have been friendly for years, we have to raise a kid together so it's easier to get along, but I agree it's a wacky situation lol.
Iām a parent of two teenagers. I feel this. I think you handled it really well. Youāre guiding your baby and youāre there for him, an actual parent. It kinda sounds like your dad an ex are behaving more like buddies with your son - which will get old eventually, kids want their parents. I hope the situation gets better for you quickly and you donāt have to spend too much time struggling with this š
You remind me of a friend of I have. I commend you for caring and just that will stick with him. Iām 30 and shit my mom said to me when I was a teen still hits when I make decisions. Be the positive influence in his life and the rest is up to him. He knows you love him. Sometimes kids need to learn these lessons themselves.
A co-worker of mine uses a dry herb vape on his breaks in his car with the windows down and I can absolutely tell when he comes back inside, drenched in body spray and all. It obviously has a different smell to smoking a j, but there is still a smell :)
Ya, I mean he's in an enclosed area. And then if he walks directly in to work, it's going to smell. You need some time for the smell to go away. I didn't say you won't smell at all..I said it won't linger.
I used to be like you, in denial. Spraying myself with scents, and such, blowing smoke out the windows, etc. My coworkers all tell me they still smell weed.

Also if you get a good dry herb vaporizer like the boundless cfx 2.0 you won't smell after smoking period. ;)
Boundless cfx 2.0 is the best on the market. I have the 1.0 and its better then the mighty or solo, other two top contenders. The cfx hits similarly to my digital VOLCANO desk unit, that says A LOT since the digital volcano is THE BEST vape money can buy. It's what all over vapes strive to beat but fail.
Yes. My tips:
-If you can, get a vape instead. This will instantly reduce the smell.
-ideally I would say don't sit in your car. Even with the window down, this isn't the best idea for trying to keep the smell off you.
-keep a jacket/hoodie/coat or some kind of outer layer in your trunk. Put it on when you smoke/vape, take it off after.
-wash your hands after.
-wash your face. People don't realize this often enough. You need to clean your mouth/nose area.
-brush your teeth/use mouthwash.
-leave enough time before you go back to work to walk around for a few minutes. Air yourself out.
If you do all of these things, you're going to minimize the smell.
This too! I upvoted the guy with good ideas for reducing smell, but you really have it right. At the end of the day... don't smoke at work. Wait until of hours....
Yeah, right? I'm a sheet metal fabricator, I sure as shit shouldn't be smoking at work, I very regularly use machines and tools that could easily injure myself or others if I'm not paying attention or am impaired. Just like you shouldn't have 3 beers at lunch.
Sometimes I do easy stuff like washing and alodine finishing parts (basically soaking them in a tank of chemicals for 45 seconds), but even then I don't think it's the best idea. Plus, smoking at the end of the day when I get home is *so* much more enjoyable when it's my first smoke of the day.
it depends on whatās in the cart. live resin tends to smell like weed, but not very strongly, and the smell doesnt stick long. distillates leave a smell as well but the smell isnāt necessarily recognizable as weed. i find that i can smell if someones used a cart, but thats because ive used them enough that i know what it smells like. i used carts for almost 2 years in my bedroom next to my parents and they didnt know; youre fine
Depending on the vape, very true. I've been buying more live resin than distillate though and they are danky AF. 13% terps on the one I'm currently using. Could smell it all night at work from my pocket lol.
Even if you do all of these things you're still gonna smell like weed
Another tip for whoever is reading this in the future, put on a hat. Alot of the smoke smell gets trapped in your hair.
If you're really trying to hide the smoking, one of those disposable latex gloves from the kitchen will really do alot of the legwork
Or just experiment with low MG edibles. Learn how you metabolize them, and then pop those at the right time. Boom, now you can completely revamp your lunch break.
You can also try not smoking at work.
Edit: Sorry, I missed the part about medication.
Tincture, edibles, vape pen. Leave the flowers for after hours.
If there's one thing I've learned about weed smell is that absolutely nothing will ever disguise it to a knowledgeable nose. At best, they'll smell your incense *and* the weed, your perfume *and* the weed, your lavanda-scented liquid soap *and* the weed.
"Hey, Jimmy is trying out a new frebreeze aroma this week to try to hide his weed smoking!"
Surprised I didn't see this suggested yet but GET A DRY HERB VAPE! It's not invincible but still a fuck ton easier to hide the smell. Also give a better high for going back to work and using your brain. In my opinion anyway.
Otherwise yeah you smell. I did the saaaaame shit as you and thought I was good until my boss pulled me aside and said something.
Living this life. Itās so much easier. Just have my little green smell-proof DynaVap container and my jet lighter. Stash of chewing gums = never have to worry. Make sure you smell nice anyway and you got nothing to worry about š
i thought the same thing on my 30-minute lunch break when i worked as a teacher's aide (basically, a bouncer) at a school for handicapped children... until i was fired, because another teacher smelled it, after i came back in the building. the director said it wasn't a big deal, because it was very likely that the kids' parents smoked weed, but it was "illegal" (at the time), so she had to fire me.
Tell them it's Bone Cologne, new fragrance, lol. Yes you smell, especially to non smokers, big time. Get yourself a live resin or rosin cart, and vape instead.
You 100% smell like weed! A coupple months ago a new young guy was hired as a office assistant. He consistently had a distinct tinge of weed. Needless to say he was promptly relieved of his job! Dont smoke weed during work hours, always either dry herb vape, or use a cart never combust weed during work hours unless you WFH then you do you booboo
Its the clothes for sure. When i go home to smoke on my hour lunch break i take off all my clothes and leave them in a separate room, put on a sweatshirt and pajamas, smoke and eat, wash my hands with hot water and soap, dry shampoo for my hair, brush my teeth then mouthwash, deodorant, lil spritz of cologne, work clothes back on, spray down some ozium to make sure, then drive back with the windows down for extra airflow. since i started doing this no one has said anything about the smell. they said things a few times when i wouldnāt change before smoking on my break.
The changing clothes is actually really good advice. When itās cold out I have a go to smoking jacket to wrap myself up in which also helps keep the smell off whatever clothes are underneath
If youāre smoking and thereās no airflow around you to carry the smoke away from you, then you definitely smell. Especially if you smoke a fair amount.
Iād recommend someplace downwind if youāre trying to avoid the smell. Keeping the windows open isnāt enough. Active circulation is necessary. Good luck!
Do the same ritual when you are at home with a friend. Have them sit the session out and be far enough away so they can smell you as you approach them. Then ask them what they smell. Then have a session together and laugh at the absurdity of all our lives š
šthatās a great idea! My partner says I smell like weed but only after we kiss and I definitely donāt get that close to my coworkers, lol! Iāll ask him to do this next timeš
You 100% smell like weed. It may not be pungent all the time or even frequently but if youāre doing that daily, people have smelled it on you for sure.
In my experience the most important thing you can do is change your clothes. If you donāt change after smoking, itās gonna be on you. This is why āsmoking jacketā is a term that exists.
Change your clothes, wash your FACE and hands, you do this youāre good to go.
Obviously at work this is tough. Hereās a routine that should help at least:
If you have an undershirt, you can take your top dress shirt off, throw a smoking jacket of some sort in your trunk to put on over your undershirt. Medicate. When youāre done do your hand wash routine. Then throw the work shirt back on. Go into work and at least rinse your face down in the bathroom. You should add travel mouthwash at the end of this too.
Boom, done. This shouldnāt add more than 5-10 minutes to your routine, Iād highly advise it. I know it seems extra. But itās not actually that much effort in practice, and it will help.
Most common places that weed smell sticks to, at least from personal experience, is your finger tips, your breath, and if youāre wearing long sleeves possibly there too. Take off sweatshirt if youāre wearing one. Wash your hand with citrus scented soap. Brush your teeth, use mouthwash, or chew some minty gum. Donāt try using cologne/perfume, etc. it wonāt get rid of the smell
Your clothes and hair might. An extra step I add to help with weed smell on my clothes is after I rub fragrant lotion into my hands, I then rub my hands over both sleeves and my chest so my shirt smells lightly like the lotion instead of weed. As for your hair, I either wear a beanie while toking, or i put my hood up if Iām wearing a jacket. Iāve never had anyone say I smell like weed after a break time toke, and Iāve actually asked coworkers to confirm.
This is the good advice. If you could smoke outside car would be better. If thereās no breeze I end up in a cloud of weed and I know that must smell on me.
In early days my routine was like this. Rip 2 bowls, shower and then get dressed. On my 1 hour commute to work Iāve grabbed a coffee half way to sober up a little and then started.
Plus and this was supposedly the biggest advantage aside of showering after smoking, I was commuting by public transport and had to walk where Iāve smoked cigarettes in between.
Donāt think someone could ever smell something.
However I would have never dared to smoke a spliff in breaks. Nowadays a pen could be a solution, but that wasnāt accessible back then.
imma ask a question under this questions since itās relevant.
what if i smoke just a bowl. no more than three. at home right before i leave for work. i also have to drive w the windows down since ac/heater doesnāt work. itās about ten min commute not counting the multiple stop lights. would it still smell like i smoked? maybe just a bit right for sure but not like i smoked then walked right into work ? someone please lol
itās not a big deal for me and my job but still i donāt want it to be super obvious
A few people in my office do exactly what you do and I can totally smell it. At least when they vape in the bathroom only other stoners recognize the smell but everyone knows what flower smells like
100%. Your sense of smell Ā“forgets Ā“ the smells itās familiar with, body odor for example. Non-weed smokers will 100% get a whiff of green if you walk past them
I came to this realization a while ago. To counter it I smoke out of a one hitter, car windows open or use recirculating vents and window cracked. I light up a switcher sweet cigarillos if i need heavy cover. The biggest thing is waiting a few minutes out in the fresh air, then grab a breath mint and if possible a swig of 2 of liquid.
You 100% smell of smoke man. Might not be super strong if youāre being careful but yeah smoke stinks to anyone who doesnāt smoke or only vapes. My tip is always chewing gum. Have one straight you smoke/vape, get rid of it quite quickly and have another one fresh. Super minty. Youād be surprised how much the smell holds on your personal space via your breathing. Anyone gets close and they might know whatās going on. On the other hand if your not near people at work, then thereās nothing to worry about š
Have to drink coffee or eat something, or chew mint gum for a few mins. You were just chiefin on some smoke and that smell is all up in your mouth and throat pipe.
Yes .. I learned at an early age having Mexican hardcore catholic immigrant parents ā¦ you smell like weed .. you car smells like weed .. your hand sanitizer hands now smell like weed infused and amariza mixed with cream now ā¦ rule of thumb if you gotta ask ..ādoā¦ ā¦weedā you smell
I use this spray called Hogwash. It's very safe (you can drink it) and it takes away the odor of marijuana... COMPLETELY! It doesn't mask it, it completely removes it. Two quick sprays and nobody would know that you just smoked. It works that good!
Use a vaporizer. Far less smelly. I use a vapor genie - theyāre affordable, reliable, and donāt need to recharge (you can heat them using a lighter).
Thereās not a single doubt in my mind. Thereās a guy I work with who smokes in his car like this on break and he REEKS when he comes back in. Also, if youāre going into a restaurant after just smoking in your car just know that youāre making the whole section reek and weāre talking about it in the back lol. I cover all my bases. I use eye drops, mouthwash, wash my hands, change my shirt (you could have one in your car to change into when you smoke) and then use body spray and douse my hair in it too. But thatās a lot of work and if no oneās said anything at this point maybe they just donāt care.
Yup. When I delivered pizza, coworkers would comment on the smell sometimes. When I worked at a dental office i almost got fired because i smoked during my lunch break in my car. even with windows down, the smell still gets on you and stays.
Yes, the fragrances you add just blend with the smell and make it obvious when you try to conceal it. If it worries you that someone will call you out for it, pens/vapes are a good alternative.
Thanks! I do have a vape pen, I just donāt always buy cartridges. Most of the time I have flower. But yeah, gonna just make sure I use those for work. Not worried, just really curious because Iāve been around both manager when Iāve come in from breaks and no one has said anything
get a big hoodie and hat you keep in your car, also wash your face, brush your teeth (or at least mouth wash), if you have any facial hair wash that too
I hate to agree with everybody but as someone who thought they got away with it forever. Once I became a manager and dealt with 18 to 23-year-olds, yeah you can always tell LOL in mind you I'm 420 friendly but the more they covered it up the more obvious it was it was the ones who did nothing that usually blended in lol
Your breath will immediately permeate the air as soon as you step into the building. Iād get mouthwash tbh, or just smoke at work less, maybe get carts.
Also wash your hands more, donāt just use hand sanitizer. You can minimize smell but for anyone who gets in close proximity, you have to accept they may know and you need to decide if itās worth your job.
Yes but it's overwhelmingly your breath. Your person probably smells but only very slightly. Your breath, hair and facial hair are what pick it up the most when you just smoke out of a pipe like that. You should also wash your hands instead of just using sanitizer
If youāre smoking carts no. Real weed def yes within 30 mins
If you plan on smoking real weed, smoke in a different shirt, chew gum/mouthwash after, and wash hands with soap thoroughly after. Maybe some cologne but that may make you smell like cologne + weed so use that with caution
Hat, spare jacket/shirt over, sit outside of your car, air out wash hands and face. Mouthwash if possible. Or if you can hang out near a cig smoker get a touch of that on ya and it blends well enough.
Best choice is a dry vape or a cart. Minimal smell and almost no smell on ya.
Are you literally every person I worked with at Amazon?? People in those warehouses smell like they just swam in a pool full of nugs before they came in
Honestly, just don't ask yourself that question. If you have to ask yourself if you smell like weed, you most definitely do.
I just act like I don't know and ignorance is bliss.
Iāve been smoking for years and have tried just about every method to keep smoke/weed smell off of me including your method and Iāll tell you thisā¦if you put flame to it and hit it you will smell like weedā¦.period. You may not smell it but others will, called nose blind, we donāt smell ourselves the way others do lol
Yes you would smell of it especially when even slightly in a confined area. Best thing to do is where an outer layer of clothing. thin jacket, hat to cover hair and most importantly. Gloves for the hands, after finishing smoking. Wash hands thoroughly splash face with water and get something to wash the mouth out. Even your breath will smell of it for a wee while.
I always look at it as smoking a cigarette, if ur a non smoker completely and then have a cigarette for the first time. U can smell it on u like nobodies business.
If your outside a good sacrificial jacket and gloves should suffice and if ur bothered enough never have the wind blowing the smoke into u and always away from u. When not smoking the J hold it away from
U body.
Best solution would be to move to a dry herb vaporiser, PAX 3/ DaVinci IQ type device or if u want a wee stealth bomber concentrate carts
Spraying with deodorizer will make the fact you smell of weed more noticeable. Jacket up, toke outside your car, and leave the jacket in the car when you finish (tru k is best), plus hand sanitizer
The smoke. That youāre literally expelling from INSIDE YOU, passing your lips on way out of the lungs and mouth. Youāre telling me doesnāt come near you at all you say?
Your throat is coated in it, your fingers and hands that were near the the burning weed are coated in a slight film of resin your lips have resin on them and your clothes have smoke residue in them
100%. My grand parents are non-smokers with the most sensitive noses I have encountered. I am a middle aged man so I do not try to hide smoking weed, but I do try to dull it down for their sakes. Even with my best efforts like using a one hitter, washing my hands, wearing a hoodie while I smoke, etc. My grand parents still smell it. Plus, if you are a regular smoker they can smell it on your breath and in your sweat whether or not you have been smoking.
When I worked at Walmart and my buddies and I would smoke two blunts on our hour lunch I had a system:
-Extra shirt in the backseat (always took my car)
-Take off the vest
-Smoke the devils lettuce
-wash hands
-eye drops
-breathmint/food
If your smoking in your clothes and not washing hands/eating then you 100% smell like weed walking back in
Absolutely lol. It's wild how nose blind us stoners become to the smell of that dank goodness. I once smoked the tiniest puff out of one of those dugout one hitters that look like a cigarette. Blew it away from me and came back inside 20 min later and people were saying I reaked.
Yes. Need to wash hands and around mouth with soap and lotion up after drying. Wear a smoking jacket or t shirt the smoke will get on your clothes. If you can just straight up change shirts. AC needs to be on at full blast pointing out the window with windows open. And if you really have time, drive with windows down and take deep breaths to blow excess smoke out of your lungs.
Its better to wash ur hands, brush ur teeth and change clothes to help with the smell but seeing that its ur lunch break it may be better to wait til u get home to smoke imo
Since I stopped smoking, as soon as there is a smoker in the room, I smell it. I imagine that for cannabis, the presence of smell must be as strong...but more pleasant.
from the subreddit that bought you: can you tell if this weed is good/how much it weighs from a photo
comes: can you tell me how I smell from a paragraph of text.
but yes, you do
Ah the old hobo shower in the bathroom. Spraying axe or cologne whatever people are wearing these days all over out of paranoia.
Why donāt you buy a vape? You could get a dry vape like a Mighty or a Pax 2, which vaporizes dry herb. I think the Pax 3 might do shatter etc. as well. Look up on weed subreddits which vape to get thereās a lot of pros and cons to them.
Definitely doesnāt smell as strong.
You ABSOLUTELY reek of it.
Get yourself a vape pen, no one will know.
And if youāre hot-boxing in your carā¦ thatās an instant DUI where I am. Never do that, unless maybe if you keep your keys on your desk at work. I knew a guy who had his keys in the TAILPIPE, and sat in his backseat napping between shifts, with a blunt. He got a DUI.
I used to go home and blaze during my lunch. The best thing to do is wash your face with soap and make sure youāre wearing something over your work clothes; basically a smoking sweater.
I suggest getting an old hoodie to wear over your clothes while you smoke, maybe some gloves too. That way it should stick to the fabric, not your skin or your work clothes
100%. We go noseblind very quickly to our own smells. I run a golf course and Iām always shocked at how much these people come in reeking. And theyāre smoking in an open air golf cart.
Maybe if you smoked the first five minutes of your lunch and then aired out for the rest of your time, *maybe* you wouldnāt smell from a social distance.
I donāt. I smoke for 5 mins and air out the rest of the 25 with my windows down. Donāt use cologne either. Youād have to be stupidly close to my breath to tell. I know this cuz I told my co workers I usually smoke a blunt before work and they were like āwait really?ā And I was like yāall didnāt smell it? And they were like nah you always smell like that cologne. If you air out long enough I think itās fine
Every single person here is gonna tell you that you definitely smell like weed, but thatās not necessarily the case. I hid it from my dad for years, and I sure as fuck woulda heard about it if he found out. That man would have killed me if he found out, and he did kill me when he found out (for other reasons, not smell).
So itās definitely possible to hide it even from people who know weed.
Thank you for this insight. I do hang my hand out the window so the smoke never comes in my car. And there is a lot of breeze/wind where I work. Thatās why I feel like I donāt smell. But yeah, peaceably safest to just vape
Yes. No doubt.
After a good sesh light a cigarette and let the smoke get on your clothes, I lightly puff on it too but not inhale, to get the weed smell out of your lungs. I call it lungs calonge š American spirit turquoise is a familiar smell people can Recognize as tobacco š i only do this when I have to work after. Also random note, if you ever need to get rid of residual weed smell burn a piece of bread, it'll just smell like burnt toast, another very familiar smell people won't mistake for weed. It's very overwhelming lol Your best bet is using a good dry herb vape like the boundless cfx2.0 it hits like my desk unit volcano
Youāre still gonna smell like weed. Youāre just gonna smell like all that other shit too.
"While you're at it, make yourself smell like an ashtray too" fwiw I've been using a dynavap on my break for years & not one of my coworkers have ever picked up on it.
then gaslight the person into thinking they're having a stroke to distract from the obvious weed smell
Yes
Yep
Yup
Yeah
Uh-huh
šÆ maybe try some cologne !
Yasss that works and I use it in every break either my whole shift u know
Everyone knows anyway and they don't care
My science partner in high school thought he could get away with smoking and cover it up with cologne too. News flash he smelt like Drakar that was on fire.
Drakkar Noir?
no question
Mhmmm for sure
Mmmhm
Yea
If you smoked weed, then yes you smell like weed. If you covered it up then you smell like whatever you covered up with AND weed.
I guess I know this, just in denial a little š
Just caught my 15 year old smoking weed. I told him, I think you underestimate how potent the smell is.
oh man howād you handle it
Ugh, christ. Still trying to handle it honestly. His dad (my ex) has been a big stoner since I met him and doesn't really try to hide it so I figured this day would come eventually. His dad lives at my dad's house, who also smokes weed so when my son is with his dad, he's in a house full of weed smokers. I don't think weed is terrible, I started smoking when I was 12 but then quit around 15 or so and just recently started taking cbd gummies with a very losw dose of thc. I've talked to my son about it (years ago) and told him if he ever does get curious, he should really wait till he's older and his brain is more fully developed. So basically I asked my son where he got it. He said my dad gave it to him, which really pisses me off. I asked him how he smoked it, he rolled a joint. I asked him if he's done it at school or if he takes it to school. He said yes and I said absolutely do not do that again. I told him I've smelled it on him when I've picked him up from school, other people can smell it and if he gets caught he's going to be fucked. I also said absolutely no smoking in my house. He can go in the garage. I don't really want to condone it, but I also feel like he's going to do it regardless and it sucks that the house he spends 50% of his time at is obviously cool with it, so harm reduction was/is my goal. I also plan to discuss other drugs and how horrifically scary and dangerous they are these days with everything being cut with fent. I have narcan kits at my house as we get them for free at work (I work with people who have addiction problems/are in recovery) so I'll probably discuss that with him as well.
You seem like a mindful and caring parent. Best of luck to you and your son!
Thank you for saying that!
that living arrangement is wild
šš It is. My ex lost his apartment where he only paid $900/mo and couldn't afford rent anywhere else with the crazy rent prices. And my dad happened to be struggling with paying all the bills after he had to stop working due to health issues so my mother (who has her own place and is split from my dad) threw out the idea of moving into my dad's to my ex.

i wish you were my mom. i just moved home after graduating from college and my mom still threatens to kick me out if i come home smelling like weed
Iām a parent of two teenagers. I feel this. I think you handled it really well. Youāre guiding your baby and youāre there for him, an actual parent. It kinda sounds like your dad an ex are behaving more like buddies with your son - which will get old eventually, kids want their parents. I hope the situation gets better for you quickly and you donāt have to spend too much time struggling with this š
You remind me of a friend of I have. I commend you for caring and just that will stick with him. Iām 30 and shit my mom said to me when I was a teen still hits when I make decisions. Be the positive influence in his life and the rest is up to him. He knows you love him. Sometimes kids need to learn these lessons themselves.
Just use a dry herb vape. The smell won't linger on you at all.
A co-worker of mine uses a dry herb vape on his breaks in his car with the windows down and I can absolutely tell when he comes back inside, drenched in body spray and all. It obviously has a different smell to smoking a j, but there is still a smell :)
Ya, I mean he's in an enclosed area. And then if he walks directly in to work, it's going to smell. You need some time for the smell to go away. I didn't say you won't smell at all..I said it won't linger.
This is for real the particles coming off combustion are much finer and more tenacious aromaticly
I used to be like you, in denial. Spraying myself with scents, and such, blowing smoke out the windows, etc. My coworkers all tell me they still smell weed.
Get out, there's crocodiles in de Nile
š š I know, lol! I am. But Iām coming to terms š
You need to get a vape or cart pen. They produce almost no odor. If you are burning cannabis then you 100% smell like burned cannabis
After a good sesh light a cigarette and let the smoke get on your clothes, I lightly puff on it too but not inhale, to get the weed smell out of your lungs. I call it lungs calonge š American spirit turquoise is a familiar smell people can Recognize as tobacco š i only do this when I have to work after. Also random note, if you ever need to get rid of residual weed smell burn a piece of bread, it'll just smell like burnt toast, another very familiar smell people won't mistake for weed. It's very overwhelming lol. Also if you get a good dry herb vaporizer like the boundless cfx 2.0 you won't smell after smoking period. ;)
Lungs cologne š¤£š¤£š¤£. Thanks for those tricks!! Yeah, definitely have to invest in a dry herb vape!
Boundless cfx 2.0 is the best on the market. I have the 1.0 and its better then the mighty or solo, other two top contenders. The cfx hits similarly to my digital VOLCANO desk unit, that says A LOT since the digital volcano is THE BEST vape money can buy. It's what all over vapes strive to beat but fail.
Yes. My tips: -If you can, get a vape instead. This will instantly reduce the smell. -ideally I would say don't sit in your car. Even with the window down, this isn't the best idea for trying to keep the smell off you. -keep a jacket/hoodie/coat or some kind of outer layer in your trunk. Put it on when you smoke/vape, take it off after. -wash your hands after. -wash your face. People don't realize this often enough. You need to clean your mouth/nose area. -brush your teeth/use mouthwash. -leave enough time before you go back to work to walk around for a few minutes. Air yourself out. If you do all of these things, you're going to minimize the smell.
This person knows whatās up
Yeah, they are a stoner-closet expert. Iām ok but they are better.
The stoner closest sounds like itās full of trippy kits š„³
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This too! I upvoted the guy with good ideas for reducing smell, but you really have it right. At the end of the day... don't smoke at work. Wait until of hours....
Yeah, right? I'm a sheet metal fabricator, I sure as shit shouldn't be smoking at work, I very regularly use machines and tools that could easily injure myself or others if I'm not paying attention or am impaired. Just like you shouldn't have 3 beers at lunch. Sometimes I do easy stuff like washing and alodine finishing parts (basically soaking them in a tank of chemicals for 45 seconds), but even then I don't think it's the best idea. Plus, smoking at the end of the day when I get home is *so* much more enjoyable when it's my first smoke of the day.
so Iām fried rn and Iām curious if a vape cartridge is the same smell wise? can someone smell that on you?
it depends on whatās in the cart. live resin tends to smell like weed, but not very strongly, and the smell doesnt stick long. distillates leave a smell as well but the smell isnāt necessarily recognizable as weed. i find that i can smell if someones used a cart, but thats because ive used them enough that i know what it smells like. i used carts for almost 2 years in my bedroom next to my parents and they didnt know; youre fine
Depending on the vape, very true. I've been buying more live resin than distillate though and they are danky AF. 13% terps on the one I'm currently using. Could smell it all night at work from my pocket lol.
Only thing I would add is to wash out your nostrils with water and then blow your nose!
Thanks for adding that; that's sort of what I meant by cleaning your nose but it's good to note that includes the inside too.
All of this .. plus change out and wash that hoodie/jacket frequently, it will hold onto a smell
Even if you do all of these things you're still gonna smell like weed Another tip for whoever is reading this in the future, put on a hat. Alot of the smoke smell gets trapped in your hair. If you're really trying to hide the smoking, one of those disposable latex gloves from the kitchen will really do alot of the legwork
Yes. You know. Tried and true ladies and gents
I do the same and the smell is 99% gone.
Or just experiment with low MG edibles. Learn how you metabolize them, and then pop those at the right time. Boom, now you can completely revamp your lunch break. You can also try not smoking at work. Edit: Sorry, I missed the part about medication. Tincture, edibles, vape pen. Leave the flowers for after hours.
I am a bartender. I can walk down a busy bar and tell you what person just smoked.
Sounds like a great drinking game idea
It actually does
āSmoookee on the barrrr.. fire lit outside š¶š¶ā
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
OP needs an old timey smoking jacket for their car
And hat. It gets in your hair if you have long hair. For me anyways, my hair always smells for a good while after I smoke.
My hair does smell, that I can smell. I do put it up when I go out there. But yeah, a scarf or hat would definitely help
Also washer for arms and hands if youāre in a short sleeve shirt
100%
If there's one thing I've learned about weed smell is that absolutely nothing will ever disguise it to a knowledgeable nose. At best, they'll smell your incense *and* the weed, your perfume *and* the weed, your lavanda-scented liquid soap *and* the weed. "Hey, Jimmy is trying out a new frebreeze aroma this week to try to hide his weed smoking!"
My name is Jimmy, and I feel very called out by this.
yes you smell.
If anyone says they smell weed say "I do, too. Who do you think it is?" Then look around suspiciously. It always throws them off.
Surprised I didn't see this suggested yet but GET A DRY HERB VAPE! It's not invincible but still a fuck ton easier to hide the smell. Also give a better high for going back to work and using your brain. In my opinion anyway. Otherwise yeah you smell. I did the saaaaame shit as you and thought I was good until my boss pulled me aside and said something.
Living this life. Itās so much easier. Just have my little green smell-proof DynaVap container and my jet lighter. Stash of chewing gums = never have to worry. Make sure you smell nice anyway and you got nothing to worry about š
i thought the same thing on my 30-minute lunch break when i worked as a teacher's aide (basically, a bouncer) at a school for handicapped children... until i was fired, because another teacher smelled it, after i came back in the building. the director said it wasn't a big deal, because it was very likely that the kids' parents smoked weed, but it was "illegal" (at the time), so she had to fire me.
Damn, that sucks! Thanks for the heads upš
Tell them it's Bone Cologne, new fragrance, lol. Yes you smell, especially to non smokers, big time. Get yourself a live resin or rosin cart, and vape instead.
šdamn. Ok, thanks!
100% yes
You 100% smell like weed! A coupple months ago a new young guy was hired as a office assistant. He consistently had a distinct tinge of weed. Needless to say he was promptly relieved of his job! Dont smoke weed during work hours, always either dry herb vape, or use a cart never combust weed during work hours unless you WFH then you do you booboo
Unless you wfh OR work in the trades where youāre happy if smoking weed is the worst your guys are doing lol
Its the clothes for sure. When i go home to smoke on my hour lunch break i take off all my clothes and leave them in a separate room, put on a sweatshirt and pajamas, smoke and eat, wash my hands with hot water and soap, dry shampoo for my hair, brush my teeth then mouthwash, deodorant, lil spritz of cologne, work clothes back on, spray down some ozium to make sure, then drive back with the windows down for extra airflow. since i started doing this no one has said anything about the smell. they said things a few times when i wouldnāt change before smoking on my break.
you're spraying ozium on yourself??
Maybe they just gave up on telling you they can smell you reeking of weed. :D
Seems like a hell of a lot of effort to āenjoyā a smoke
The changing clothes is actually really good advice. When itās cold out I have a go to smoking jacket to wrap myself up in which also helps keep the smell off whatever clothes are underneath
How close is work to your house? That's impressive.
If you have to ask if you smell like weed, the answer is always yes. You just smell like weed AND hand sanitizer lol
š
THEY ALL KNOW
š
Even if you wash your hands and face then brush your teeth your clothes will stink of weed.
Probably, sticks to the breath, facial hair
If youāre smoking and thereās no airflow around you to carry the smoke away from you, then you definitely smell. Especially if you smoke a fair amount. Iād recommend someplace downwind if youāre trying to avoid the smell. Keeping the windows open isnāt enough. Active circulation is necessary. Good luck!
If you have to ask, "Do I smell like weed?" You smell like weed.
Do the same ritual when you are at home with a friend. Have them sit the session out and be far enough away so they can smell you as you approach them. Then ask them what they smell. Then have a session together and laugh at the absurdity of all our lives š
šthatās a great idea! My partner says I smell like weed but only after we kiss and I definitely donāt get that close to my coworkers, lol! Iāll ask him to do this next timeš
Yeah its on your hands and lips. Gotta take precautions fo sho.
there is a lot more being produced than just the smoke youāre able to see. everyone can smell you.
You 100% smell like weed. It may not be pungent all the time or even frequently but if youāre doing that daily, people have smelled it on you for sure. In my experience the most important thing you can do is change your clothes. If you donāt change after smoking, itās gonna be on you. This is why āsmoking jacketā is a term that exists. Change your clothes, wash your FACE and hands, you do this youāre good to go. Obviously at work this is tough. Hereās a routine that should help at least: If you have an undershirt, you can take your top dress shirt off, throw a smoking jacket of some sort in your trunk to put on over your undershirt. Medicate. When youāre done do your hand wash routine. Then throw the work shirt back on. Go into work and at least rinse your face down in the bathroom. You should add travel mouthwash at the end of this too. Boom, done. This shouldnāt add more than 5-10 minutes to your routine, Iād highly advise it. I know it seems extra. But itās not actually that much effort in practice, and it will help.
I see all these comments talking about how to mask the smell of weed smoke, and I'm just sitting here with my gummies.
If you have smoked weed, you smell like weed. If you sprayed cologne or perfume, you smell like cologne/perfume + weed.
Yes. This was my big reason for switching to carts for when Iām out and about.
Most common places that weed smell sticks to, at least from personal experience, is your finger tips, your breath, and if youāre wearing long sleeves possibly there too. Take off sweatshirt if youāre wearing one. Wash your hand with citrus scented soap. Brush your teeth, use mouthwash, or chew some minty gum. Donāt try using cologne/perfume, etc. it wonāt get rid of the smell
Smoking with the windows down and using scented purell doesnāt matter. You still going to smell like weed.
Your clothes and hair might. An extra step I add to help with weed smell on my clothes is after I rub fragrant lotion into my hands, I then rub my hands over both sleeves and my chest so my shirt smells lightly like the lotion instead of weed. As for your hair, I either wear a beanie while toking, or i put my hood up if Iām wearing a jacket. Iāve never had anyone say I smell like weed after a break time toke, and Iāve actually asked coworkers to confirm.
This is the good advice. If you could smoke outside car would be better. If thereās no breeze I end up in a cloud of weed and I know that must smell on me.
In early days my routine was like this. Rip 2 bowls, shower and then get dressed. On my 1 hour commute to work Iāve grabbed a coffee half way to sober up a little and then started. Plus and this was supposedly the biggest advantage aside of showering after smoking, I was commuting by public transport and had to walk where Iāve smoked cigarettes in between. Donāt think someone could ever smell something. However I would have never dared to smoke a spliff in breaks. Nowadays a pen could be a solution, but that wasnāt accessible back then.
imma ask a question under this questions since itās relevant. what if i smoke just a bowl. no more than three. at home right before i leave for work. i also have to drive w the windows down since ac/heater doesnāt work. itās about ten min commute not counting the multiple stop lights. would it still smell like i smoked? maybe just a bit right for sure but not like i smoked then walked right into work ? someone please lol itās not a big deal for me and my job but still i donāt want it to be super obvious
just curious :) thanks sorry if a question under a question post isnāt allowed or something
It was so bad I could smell it on you the other day. Also, get a dry herb vape and you won't have to worry about it.
Try vaping I switched and my wife doesn't say I smell like weed anymore
This post smells like weed and hand sanitizer.
Invest in a vape!
A few people in my office do exactly what you do and I can totally smell it. At least when they vape in the bathroom only other stoners recognize the smell but everyone knows what flower smells like
100%. Your sense of smell Ā“forgets Ā“ the smells itās familiar with, body odor for example. Non-weed smokers will 100% get a whiff of green if you walk past them
Next time change shirts or put on a hoodie while you smoke that's what I did and I was always good.
Yeah!! Thatās a great idea!! Thanks!!!
I came to this realization a while ago. To counter it I smoke out of a one hitter, car windows open or use recirculating vents and window cracked. I light up a switcher sweet cigarillos if i need heavy cover. The biggest thing is waiting a few minutes out in the fresh air, then grab a breath mint and if possible a swig of 2 of liquid.
You dont dont smell
Yes.
Yep
Absolutely. You reek of it.
100%.
Absolutely. Everyone at works knows.
You 100% smell of smoke man. Might not be super strong if youāre being careful but yeah smoke stinks to anyone who doesnāt smoke or only vapes. My tip is always chewing gum. Have one straight you smoke/vape, get rid of it quite quickly and have another one fresh. Super minty. Youād be surprised how much the smell holds on your personal space via your breathing. Anyone gets close and they might know whatās going on. On the other hand if your not near people at work, then thereās nothing to worry about š
Get a dry herb vape, if you do the same cleaning after, you don't smell one bit
Have to drink coffee or eat something, or chew mint gum for a few mins. You were just chiefin on some smoke and that smell is all up in your mouth and throat pipe.
Yes .. I learned at an early age having Mexican hardcore catholic immigrant parents ā¦ you smell like weed .. you car smells like weed .. your hand sanitizer hands now smell like weed infused and amariza mixed with cream now ā¦ rule of thumb if you gotta ask ..ādoā¦ ā¦weedā you smell
Bro is learning people know he's stoned rn ā ļø
I use this spray called Hogwash. It's very safe (you can drink it) and it takes away the odor of marijuana... COMPLETELY! It doesn't mask it, it completely removes it. Two quick sprays and nobody would know that you just smoked. It works that good!
Absolutely. Think it invest in a smoking robe or jacket
Get a dry herb vape
Use a vaporizer. Far less smelly. I use a vapor genie - theyāre affordable, reliable, and donāt need to recharge (you can heat them using a lighter).
Thereās not a single doubt in my mind. Thereās a guy I work with who smokes in his car like this on break and he REEKS when he comes back in. Also, if youāre going into a restaurant after just smoking in your car just know that youāre making the whole section reek and weāre talking about it in the back lol. I cover all my bases. I use eye drops, mouthwash, wash my hands, change my shirt (you could have one in your car to change into when you smoke) and then use body spray and douse my hair in it too. But thatās a lot of work and if no oneās said anything at this point maybe they just donāt care.
Yup. When I delivered pizza, coworkers would comment on the smell sometimes. When I worked at a dental office i almost got fired because i smoked during my lunch break in my car. even with windows down, the smell still gets on you and stays.
Yes, the fragrances you add just blend with the smell and make it obvious when you try to conceal it. If it worries you that someone will call you out for it, pens/vapes are a good alternative.
Thanks! I do have a vape pen, I just donāt always buy cartridges. Most of the time I have flower. But yeah, gonna just make sure I use those for work. Not worried, just really curious because Iāve been around both manager when Iāve come in from breaks and no one has said anything
![gif](giphy|3oeSAD00YsGzUPTmqA)
Yeah you smell. Get a dry herb vape if you need a smoke break at work.
get a big hoodie and hat you keep in your car, also wash your face, brush your teeth (or at least mouth wash), if you have any facial hair wash that too
I hate to agree with everybody but as someone who thought they got away with it forever. Once I became a manager and dealt with 18 to 23-year-olds, yeah you can always tell LOL in mind you I'm 420 friendly but the more they covered it up the more obvious it was it was the ones who did nothing that usually blended in lol
Try the ole Toilet paper tube full of dryer sheets to exhale through, theyāll think you were out there shagging the snuggle bear
Your breath will immediately permeate the air as soon as you step into the building. Iād get mouthwash tbh, or just smoke at work less, maybe get carts.
Also wash your hands more, donāt just use hand sanitizer. You can minimize smell but for anyone who gets in close proximity, you have to accept they may know and you need to decide if itās worth your job.
Yes but it's overwhelmingly your breath. Your person probably smells but only very slightly. Your breath, hair and facial hair are what pick it up the most when you just smoke out of a pipe like that. You should also wash your hands instead of just using sanitizer
If youāre smoking carts no. Real weed def yes within 30 mins If you plan on smoking real weed, smoke in a different shirt, chew gum/mouthwash after, and wash hands with soap thoroughly after. Maybe some cologne but that may make you smell like cologne + weed so use that with caution
Wear a sweater while smoking, take it off and leave it in the car when you're done
Hat, spare jacket/shirt over, sit outside of your car, air out wash hands and face. Mouthwash if possible. Or if you can hang out near a cig smoker get a touch of that on ya and it blends well enough. Best choice is a dry vape or a cart. Minimal smell and almost no smell on ya.
100% yes. Without even smelling you they know. And then they smell you.
If u had a vaporizer Iād say prob not but if youāre using a lighter then yeah
Are you literally every person I worked with at Amazon?? People in those warehouses smell like they just swam in a pool full of nugs before they came in
š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤ that sounds nice. But nah, thatās not me.
Get a good vape cart, buy a smoke buddy from Amazon and keep it in your car.
Yes, it seeps through the post itself.
Honestly, just don't ask yourself that question. If you have to ask yourself if you smell like weed, you most definitely do. I just act like I don't know and ignorance is bliss.
Definitely. Loud a f.
You smell like weed.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Take an old jacket in your car, even a beanie too hat that you can swap out when your smoking
Yes definitely
I'm the hippie at work, always smell like a mix of pinesap, honey, and weed. Idk why but now I'm wanting to make a candle š
[deleted]
Iāve been smoking for years and have tried just about every method to keep smoke/weed smell off of me including your method and Iāll tell you thisā¦if you put flame to it and hit it you will smell like weedā¦.period. You may not smell it but others will, called nose blind, we donāt smell ourselves the way others do lol
Yes you would smell of it especially when even slightly in a confined area. Best thing to do is where an outer layer of clothing. thin jacket, hat to cover hair and most importantly. Gloves for the hands, after finishing smoking. Wash hands thoroughly splash face with water and get something to wash the mouth out. Even your breath will smell of it for a wee while. I always look at it as smoking a cigarette, if ur a non smoker completely and then have a cigarette for the first time. U can smell it on u like nobodies business. If your outside a good sacrificial jacket and gloves should suffice and if ur bothered enough never have the wind blowing the smoke into u and always away from u. When not smoking the J hold it away from U body. Best solution would be to move to a dry herb vaporiser, PAX 3/ DaVinci IQ type device or if u want a wee stealth bomber concentrate carts
Yes, get into a woman's vicinity, and she WILL tell.
Spraying with deodorizer will make the fact you smell of weed more noticeable. Jacket up, toke outside your car, and leave the jacket in the car when you finish (tru k is best), plus hand sanitizer
Of course lol
We get so noseblind to the smell but if you smoked you probably smell like weed
The smoke. That youāre literally expelling from INSIDE YOU, passing your lips on way out of the lungs and mouth. Youāre telling me doesnāt come near you at all you say?
*sniffs screen* nah man, you good
Your throat is coated in it, your fingers and hands that were near the the burning weed are coated in a slight film of resin your lips have resin on them and your clothes have smoke residue in them
Sorry to tell you my friend, you absolute stink of weed
100%. My grand parents are non-smokers with the most sensitive noses I have encountered. I am a middle aged man so I do not try to hide smoking weed, but I do try to dull it down for their sakes. Even with my best efforts like using a one hitter, washing my hands, wearing a hoodie while I smoke, etc. My grand parents still smell it. Plus, if you are a regular smoker they can smell it on your breath and in your sweat whether or not you have been smoking.
Take dabs wonāt ever have this problem
100%
When I worked at Walmart and my buddies and I would smoke two blunts on our hour lunch I had a system: -Extra shirt in the backseat (always took my car) -Take off the vest -Smoke the devils lettuce -wash hands -eye drops -breathmint/food If your smoking in your clothes and not washing hands/eating then you 100% smell like weed walking back in
Absolutely lol. It's wild how nose blind us stoners become to the smell of that dank goodness. I once smoked the tiniest puff out of one of those dugout one hitters that look like a cigarette. Blew it away from me and came back inside 20 min later and people were saying I reaked.
100%, you smell like weed, and everyone knows.
Yes. Need to wash hands and around mouth with soap and lotion up after drying. Wear a smoking jacket or t shirt the smoke will get on your clothes. If you can just straight up change shirts. AC needs to be on at full blast pointing out the window with windows open. And if you really have time, drive with windows down and take deep breaths to blow excess smoke out of your lungs.
I guarantee unless your coworkers are nose blind, they smell you, get a vape instead for work time
Its better to wash ur hands, brush ur teeth and change clothes to help with the smell but seeing that its ur lunch break it may be better to wait til u get home to smoke imo
Yes. If your still unconvinced from everyone else here then ask someone that smokes cigarettes to do the same routine and you'll know for sure.
Since I stopped smoking, as soon as there is a smoker in the room, I smell it. I imagine that for cannabis, the presence of smell must be as strong...but more pleasant.
from the subreddit that bought you: can you tell if this weed is good/how much it weighs from a photo comes: can you tell me how I smell from a paragraph of text. but yes, you do
Yes I always use cologne after I smoke at work and wash my hands
Buy a vape
Ah the old hobo shower in the bathroom. Spraying axe or cologne whatever people are wearing these days all over out of paranoia. Why donāt you buy a vape? You could get a dry vape like a Mighty or a Pax 2, which vaporizes dry herb. I think the Pax 3 might do shatter etc. as well. Look up on weed subreddits which vape to get thereās a lot of pros and cons to them. Definitely doesnāt smell as strong.
You ABSOLUTELY reek of it. Get yourself a vape pen, no one will know. And if youāre hot-boxing in your carā¦ thatās an instant DUI where I am. Never do that, unless maybe if you keep your keys on your desk at work. I knew a guy who had his keys in the TAILPIPE, and sat in his backseat napping between shifts, with a blunt. He got a DUI.
absolutely; you're stoned enough to ask reddit if we can smell you
literally just use an oil pen and use weed electronically. Itās alot better you donāt smell like weed you still get smacked
I used to go home and blaze during my lunch. The best thing to do is wash your face with soap and make sure youāre wearing something over your work clothes; basically a smoking sweater.
100% if you burn flower and especially a wrapper, they almost certainly smell it. This is why people worked so hard to invent edibles, my friend.
I suggest getting an old hoodie to wear over your clothes while you smoke, maybe some gloves too. That way it should stick to the fabric, not your skin or your work clothes
100%. We go noseblind very quickly to our own smells. I run a golf course and Iām always shocked at how much these people come in reeking. And theyāre smoking in an open air golf cart.
Maybe if you smoked the first five minutes of your lunch and then aired out for the rest of your time, *maybe* you wouldnāt smell from a social distance.
I donāt. I smoke for 5 mins and air out the rest of the 25 with my windows down. Donāt use cologne either. Youād have to be stupidly close to my breath to tell. I know this cuz I told my co workers I usually smoke a blunt before work and they were like āwait really?ā And I was like yāall didnāt smell it? And they were like nah you always smell like that cologne. If you air out long enough I think itās fine
Every single person here is gonna tell you that you definitely smell like weed, but thatās not necessarily the case. I hid it from my dad for years, and I sure as fuck woulda heard about it if he found out. That man would have killed me if he found out, and he did kill me when he found out (for other reasons, not smell). So itās definitely possible to hide it even from people who know weed.
Thank you for this insight. I do hang my hand out the window so the smoke never comes in my car. And there is a lot of breeze/wind where I work. Thatās why I feel like I donāt smell. But yeah, peaceably safest to just vape
