I hate, and so does my lungs and sinuses, smoke of any kind. When we have burning at constructions sites I can smell, and also start coughing, even when miles away. I can smell cigarette smoke a block away. I cannot be around wood burning fireplaces as sinuses and throat get irritated. I don't even like the smell of ash in a wood burning fireplace.
I too get headache, sinuses go crazy, and start coughing. I try to wear a mask but smoke and smell seems to come right through so try to stay inside.
For those without the sensitivity you do not know how lucky you are.

Good to hear I’m not the only one with hypersensitivity to smells. I can smell a cigarette or fire pit from a block away it seems. I have walked out of small stores of another customer reeked of cigarettes. I am a former smoker and was hypnotized to quit so that compounds my reaction to the cancer stick. The woodsmoke though is devastating. The horrific migraine and affect on my breathing even if the fireplace hasn’t been used in a year is enough to make me sit out of family vacations.
