Is it normal cigarette smoke smells good to me?

I used to be a smoker. I smoked for two years. Out of the blue I decided to quit cold turkey. It was over a month ago that I had my last cig and I still have no desire to pick up the habit again. However, whenever I'm out in public around people who are smoking, the smoke smells divine. I try not to breathe it in because I know the dangers of second-hand smoke but it smells so damn good to me. Is this normal??

    I used a ecigarette to quit last year. By the end it was no longer enjoyable smoking real tabs, but the smell of other peoples smoke was always awesome. Even now I still love the smell but wont go back.

        Thanks :) it's not too bad now, beforeit was a cconstant need to smoke, now it comes and goes.

        I shouldn't have tried to loose weight and quit smoking at the same time though haha, although tbh when I get a really bad craving I go for a jog so it helps both ways I guess :)

            I never thought I would be able to quit cold turkey but I did it. It is possible!
