Despite portraying the chain-smoking Don Draper on the hit series Mad Men, Jon actually hates cigarettes. On set, he smokes herbal cigarettes, which he apparently hates as well, claiming that they taste “terrible… like a mixture between pot and soap.” (Source: Vulture) On cigarettes, Jon has said: “I quit smoking when I was 24. It’s glamorous on film, but it’s not glamorous waking up and smelling like an ashtray.” (Source: People)
The lingering smell of smoke on clothes or furniture is really hard to get out if you’re smoking every day. Enjoy how fresh and clean you smell as a non-smoker!
