The first time i showed my cousins my ecig we were in their car and i asked if i could experiment and vape to see if they smelled it at all(cousins are non smokers)She said yes and i did,first she said she smelled nothing at all, then i blew the vapor right at the back of her head,i was in the back seat on the passenger side so the vapor kinda hit the side of her face and wrapped around her head like a cloud haha keep in mind she used to smoke but quit a long time ago and is now anti smoke full throttle hates it with a passion.She said that when i did that she got a slight scent of something that was not bad at all,her son (who is 13 btw) sitting right beside me said that it smelled like honey bunches of oats cereal.So i guess the point is even if you are right next to a person and they do smell some of the flavor your vapeing their not going to complain about it and it may spark their interest if they smoke themselves.I was vapeing the VT tobacco juice.Ive heard from net videos and sights that some flavors may smell some may not but only if you are right next to a person.Oh we had all the windows up on the car so not much air blowing around.
