I was at an event recently where a man a few feet away was smoking an e-cigarette. After a while I noticed a sickly sweet smell coming (I think) from the cigarette. I found it very unpleasant. When I got home I searched for info about the smell, but mostly what I read was that e-cigarettes produce no odor, or at most a mild sweet one. Maybe I'm more sensitive than most to the smell -- it didn't seem mild to me -- or maybe it had to do with being in a confined space. If anyone else finds the smell repellent I'd be interested to know that I'm not the only one.
