It works if smoke is common to the area. It doesn't work if your stinking up the clothes or gear at the same time by wearing them. I often hang clothes and gear in the same room as my wood boiler, never my scent lok gear. It comes out of the dryer hot and instantly in a seal bag. I never wear my clothes unless I'm hunting and remove all scent lok if I'm not, even to field dress. Smoke works in the multiple areas I hunt in. If I had no way to clean gear I'd hang them in smoke and wear them.

With the price of heating wood smoke will be every where again.

I try to stay as scent free as possible. But it may actually work on my farm, I live and hunt withing a mile of a very large charcoal company, so the scent of smoke is pretty common to the deer around here, especially on a foggy morning.

IMHO it is best to smell like nothing. While that may be impossible. I think we can diguise our scent a considerable amount. I use every means at my disposal to accomplish that.

If your referring to cigarette smoke,i know one thing it covers. Covers lungs with tar, that right there makes it not worth it to me.
