We’ve all known someone whose place permanently smells like weed. You walk in, and no matter how many candles, air fresheners, or batches of cookies they’ve got going, that unmistakable skunky scent hits you. Nothing seems to work to get rid of that smell, even hours or days later. But why is the smell of cannabis so strong, and why is it so incredibly hard to get rid of?
