The after-smell...

michael88n · 02-24-2009, 03:48 PM

Here’s a question I want to ask (I also posed the question in a review I just posted): When I’m finished smoking a good cigar, I don’t wash my hands for a while so I can smell my fingers (Jeez. You had to go there, didn’t you…).

I just finished smoking a 5 Vegas -Series 'A' and I love the smell that this Cinco left on my hands. So I keep smelling my hands. Too weird? Does anyone else do it? Is there a word for that? It's not I'm asking anyone else to smell my hand. That might be going a bit too far.

Cheers,
Michael

It's called the afterfunk, and it's awesome

I like the smell of my hand after a smoke...

Ummm not me...I wash my hands right after I smoke a cigar so I'm the opposite of you...but hey maybe I'm the one in the minority.

I'm with you. I don't "Mind" the smell, but I always wash my hands after I smoke.

I noticed a friend(Gary)of mine sniffing his fingers after smoking a cigar. I never thought of it before.
Gonna go smoke a cigar and sniff my fingers after.

Later!

I wouldnt say I sit there and cup my hands over my nose...but I dont wash them right away either. Guess I am a middle of the road average joe!

I wash my hands right away too, but I can still smell the cigar on my fingers and, yes, I do find myself sniffing them once in awhile.

floydp · 02-24-2009, 05:58 PM

Interesting. Never even thought about this. Being a geezer I'll probably forget and still not do it.

Reminds me of being a Freshman in High School...You know when your friends wouldn't believe what you did the night before....And you purposely didn't wash your one hand.....

Ditto.

All this hand washing! What are you guys? Surgeons?

Dirty hands builds character (and causes colds).

Dont keep doing it though or you will have to get your prescription changes. My optometrist is going to be happy to know why my vision keeps getting worse.
