Beckylynn,
Not unheard of, also known as phantom smells and yes, it is believed it's due to nicotine that is escaping your pores as your "detox".

I have noticed that I can still smell cigarettes and I am not around them. I have clean clothes on and they don't smell. I talked to a friend of mine and she said that in the first few days it will be coming out of your pores in your body. Just like it would if you had drank liquor all night and start sweating the next day. Is this true? :confuse:

Quitting smoking cleanses your body of harmful substances. More than 4,000 individual compounds have been identified in tobacco and tobacco smoke. Among these are about 60 compounds that cause cancer.
