Would my humidor get a cigar smell with time, or did I buy a bad humidor?
Two days is a little short for seasoning a new humidor.

Once you have determined that the smell is cedar or glue, you should season the humidor longer. Make sure that the RH in the humidor holds near where you want it to be for your cigars. Don't rely on an analog hygrometer for this.
