If you're talking about removing the smell from yourself, try splashing water on ur face a couple of times. Rain water is the best coz its purest, but any water will do. After that have a mint and take deep breaths while you enjoy the mint. A breezy environment is good too. The smell should go away completely in about 30 mins.
But the quickest way to get rid of the smell is to down a bottle of cola quickly. When you belch after that, it drive away the smell from your system as well. Try it.

The programme 'How Clean Is Your House' they recommend mixing bi-carb of soda with fresh lavender. Sprinkle over the entire carpet and leave for 15 mins to a few hours (depending on the strength of the smell) The bi-carb will "soak up" the smell of smoke rather than just masking it. Then you just hoover it all up. It worked for my carpets.
The other tip was to mix equal amounts of lemon juice and bi-carb of soda along with water in a spray bottle.Spray lightly on fabrics affected and leave to dry. This can also be used as an air freshener. The ingredients together should neutralize the smoky smells
Hope this helps..

There are some good nuetralisers on the market. Oust is quite effective. Scented candles work. Open the windows while the candles burn. If it is really bad pour some perfume or aftershave into a saucer and light it with a match, the flame only lasts a short while but the scent lingers in the air for hours.

Oust Does it
Benson and Hedges market a cigarette with no smoke odour,obviously that meant there was absolutely no point in smoking them because they have no smoke and no taste, they are call silk cut extra lights. Smoking these has the benefit of getting cancer ,heart disease with no pleasure whatsoever
I will stick to my lambos

I have yet to find an answer myself for this question...I think a good airing of the room and some smelly candles, also a good fabric spray as the smell sticks to your furniture and carpets....good luck ! I very nearly said "give up " but as a smoker myself i just couldnt do it lol...good luck !

it depends man ,... if you are for example too young to smoke and you do it behind your parents backs. then i suggest you wear a glove .. or wrap the ciggarette filter with any nearby leaf , avoid contact of smoke with your clothes and always remember chew a strong gum after you are done... if you are an adult and just want to get rid of the smell , just brush your teeth man

You also may have found if you have white ceilings they would have turned slightly yellow, where people smoke most so possibly give thise areas a good wash.....

Vinegar in a bowl, it really works. Keep somewhere hidden, under the table or anywhere else!
