Okay, so the other day, I was hanging out with some friends, and we got into this debate about vaping. Specifically, does vaping leave a smell on your clothes? I’ve always been curious about this, so I decided to put it to the test myself.
First, I grabbed a few different types of clothes – a cotton t-shirt, a polyester jacket, and even a wool sweater. I figured a variety of fabrics would give me a better idea of how the vape smell might stick, or not stick, to different materials. Then I found a friend who vapes and asked them to help me out with my little experiment.
We started by vaping in a small, closed room to see if the smell would be noticeable in the air. I wanted to see if the room would smell for the whole day. We vaped for a while. I could notice the smell would float in the air for a while. The room smelled for a while, but it cleared up eventually.
Then, my friend vaped around each of the clothing items for a few minutes. After that, I put the clothes in a separate room for several hours to see if they would hold onto the smell. I even made sure that I would not be around the clothes when my friend vaped around them, just in case I had gotten used to the smell.
After a few hours, I went back to check on the clothes. I sniffed each item carefully. Honestly, I could barely detect any smell on the cotton t-shirt and the wool sweater. There might have been a faint whiff of something sweet on the polyester jacket, but it was barely noticeable. I could not smell anything on the other clothes.
To double-check, I even asked a couple of other friends to smell the clothes without telling them about the experiment. I told them that I had just washed them and wanted them to smell them to make sure I got any odors out. None of them noticed anything unusual, except for my one friend who has a super sensitive nose. She said she could smell something, but did not know what it was. They all agreed that the clothes generally smelled fresh and clean.
So, based on my little experiment, it seems like vaping doesn’t really leave a strong, lasting smell on clothes. At least not in the way that cigarette smoke does. Maybe there’s a slight odor right after vaping, especially on synthetic fabrics, but it seems to fade away pretty quickly.
Of course, I know this wasn’t exactly a scientific study. There are probably a lot of other factors that could affect the outcome, like the type of vape juice, the device, how often and how much someone vapes, and even the person’s individual sense of smell. But still, it was interesting to see the results for myself.
For the smell of the vape that was in the air, I tried some different things to get rid of the smell.
- Ventilating the room: This helped to get the smell out of the room.
- Essential Oils: These worked well, and made the room smell nice!
- Washing the clothes: This worked like a charm! There was no smell left over after washing.
Anyway, I just thought I’d share my little vaping experiment with you all. It’s definitely something I’ll keep in mind next time the topic comes up with my friends. If any of you have had similar experiences or have other tips for getting rid of vape smell, I’d love to hear them! Let me know in the comments.
