How To Get Rid of Weed Smell: 8 Tips

When you don’t want to smell like weed but you still want to enjoy it, carry these tips with you.

From advice on where and how to smoke to some recommendations on odor-masking agents — these are our eight best tips on how to leave the lingering smell of your smoke session at the door.

1. Partake In The Great Outdoors

Nothing makes the smell of weed intensify more than baking in it. While hot-boxing, fish bowling, and sitting in the warmth of your own smoke might intensify your high and make for some funny photos, it’s not going to help in the smelling-clean department.

When you smoke outside, every rip and line of billowing smoke emanating from the end of a joint at the top of a bowl can dissipate into the endless air surrounding it. The heavily scented smoke doesn’t waft over you and settle into your clothes, skin, and hair like it does when you have an indoor smoking session.

You will not smell as much like weed when you smoke outdoors. If you must stay inside, then you’ll want to find or create the most well-ventilated area possible to avoid smelling too much.

Simple tips for smoking weed inside without smelling:

• Make a sploof to blow your hits through. A sploof is simply a toilet paper roll stuffed with dryer sheets. To keep it contained, you can rubberband a dryer sheet or toilet paper sheet at the end of each end of the roll. Then when you blow smoke through it, the dryer sheets eliminate a lot of the odor. Just don’t forget about the smoke billowing from your joint or bowl.

• Open a dang window. This might seem obvious, but too many stoners have thought of blowing their hits outside too late into the game.

• Hold your hits in as long as you can. It will help you feel the effects more intensely and let less skunky smoke out into your enclosed space.

• Air out your space after partaking by turning on a fan and opening all the windows and any doors that you can.

2. Opt For Bowls Instead of Paper-Wrapped Smoking Vessels

We love a nice joint. Who doesn’t?

However, if your aim is to have a sneaky sesh and return to your friends or family without smelling as much like weed as possible, then smoking bowls in pipes or bongs might be better.

Joints add a constant stream of burning paper to every smoking session, and more smoke ultimately means longer-lasting lingering smells.

Bowls, on the other hand, put you in a position where you’re just burning the flower, and the absence of burning paper truly does result in less stinky clothes and hands.

3. Keep An Odor Eliminator On Hand

An age-old practice — masking the smell of your pot with an odor eliminator designed for your body, clothes, or the air around you can sometimes help.

For the air, we recommend your pick of air freshener, air purifier or scented candle, or you can go classic-hippie and burn incense. Remember that no mask will clear unwanted odors better than genuine airflow and an open window.

For yourself, some spray deodorant or body spray can freshen up your clothes, while taking care to wash your hands or apply hand sanitizer will go a long way to reduce smell. For a more proactive approach to clearing the smell from your clothes, you can always rub a little baking soda on any shirt or pair of pants you want to neutralize.

4. Ramp Up Your Daily Hygiene Efforts

Simple steps you take for your hygiene can also help mask the smell of cannabis after a session.

We’re talking about re-applying deodorant, washing your hands and face, and even changing your clothes, which are acts of hygiene that also help you get rid of the smell of weed.

Brushing your teeth high is not only a refreshing and uplifting activity, but it also helps reduce unwanted odors. When you’re away from your bathroom or toothbrush, some mints can serve as a worthy, on-the-go substitute.

5. Burn Incense, Candles & Sage

If you want to smell like a weed without really smelling like weed, burn incense. For generations, this has been a go-to move in head shops and at the homes of cannabis enthusiasts.

Incense can genuinely mask the smell of cannabis, but its heavy association with the culture might not lend itself to keeping your activities secret.

Scented candles, sage, and other aromatics can play the same game without making your home smell like a hippy’s tent at a music festival. Essential oils and diffusers also offer clean and varied scents for anyone who is looking to purify their space.

6. Leave Your Piece Or Roach Outside

Sometimes absent-mindedly carrying the stinkiest remnants of your session inside causes the worst stink.

Those of you smoking joints will want to leave your roaches responsibly behind in ashtrays or at least outside to avoid dragging too much of a hefty odor in with you.

If you’re smoking a bowl, then you’re either going to want to find a place outside of your home or wherever you’re hanging out to store it post-session.

If you do need to keep it on you, then wrapping up your pipe or bong and putting it into an airtight container is the best way to mask the smell as much as possible.

7. Package Your Pot Correctly

Taking the time to put your flower in an airtight container will reduce the smell you give off and the nerves you have around it immensely.

For this exact reason, we heat-seal all of our products to keep any telling odors in for discreet, private shipping.

Once you’ve opened its original packaging, you can always package your pot to reduce smells with screw-top jars, zip-lock bags, and other airtight containers.
