I also find that some cigarettes smell "worse" than others to me due to the different tobacco blends and, predominately, the different flavor and chemical additives used.

Clove cigarettes are the only ones that would get me to pack up and move at least 10-15 feet away. Not that they are "that bad" but just that they are so pungent that I find them distracting.

Now, some foreign cigarettes, that's a whole different story. Some of those smell just downright vile.

Just read recently that approximately 4,000 chemicals exude from a burning cigarette.
Scary!

There was a time, not too long ago mind you, that I smoked a pretty regular amount of either Cohiba cigarettes or Camels in addition to my weekly lineup of good cigars. I find as I get busier and busier I reach for a cigarette less often.

Currently I am not smoking cigarettes and I look as it as a good thing.
Same here. I'm an on again smoker after quitting for three years (I need to quit soon). It doesn't bother me as much as some people, but the presence of cigarette smoke tends to ruin the overall cigar smoking experience for me (or at least downgrades the enjoyment).
