  Anyone suffer from this? I constantly smell cigarette smoke but only when at work, and occasionally at home. Only one other person here smells it but never at the same time as me.

  I did a Google search and apparently loads of people experience the same thing:

  Anyone here get the same thing?

  With about a bajillion smokers in the world I would hardly say what you're experiencing is a 'phantom' sensation... but being a non-smoker I can say I can smell you from a mile aways.

  I've read about this after I've finished watching some BBC documentary about human body..

  You are experiencing hallucination aka phantom smell - the smell of something burning is very common with this phenomenon. It can be caused by many things, the most concerning of all is a brain tumor.

  read more about it here:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bra…

  "Symptoms include phantom odors and tastes. Often, in the case of metastatic tumors, the smell of vulcanized rubber is prevalent."

  Thing is I can walk ten steps and don't get the sensation anymore. And it's not just smelling it. In fact I don't really smell it as such, I feel it. My throat is dry, my eyes sting. The person across from me gets it occasionally but never as much as I do. I never sense it outside, rarely at home, but there's one seat inside the local Starbucks that triggers it off again.

    Smoke gets easily circulated through ventilation systems. You might be extra sensitive to it.– ETM2/3

  At my last office it would come up from the club down on the floor under us. You could always tell if you had to work weekends.

  I am sure someone just walks by that just recently smoke or didn't wash their clothes and they smell. I can smell smoke on people constantly.

  or it's a tumor.
