I was reading another thread about covering the smell of cigars when smoking indoors and it got me thinking... How many people use a Lamp Berger? I have had this lamp for five years now and I think it works excellent. They make many different scents for it. The one I am currently burning is a lime citrus scent. Works great. Normally after smoking in my cave I light the lamp and leave it burning for a good half hour (with the exhaust fan off). Seems to do the trick.

Anybody else using one of these? Mine is the Provencal which has a picture of an olive branch on the front.

You can see the light amount of smoke coming from the top

I have one, use it in winter, when it's too cold to exhaust air out of the window with a fan. It, along with various other devices, takes care of the smell in the room quite well.

Actually, I just ordered a Lampe Berger yesterday! They sell them at my local cigar shop, and they also use them there... they work really well from what I can tell (from their performance at the shop).

I got the swirl lamp with the sea mist fragrance. I'm pretty excited. :-)

So these things really work? With the cooler weather heading this way I am dreading heading to the garage with a heat lamp. My office would be much nicer. They eliminate the smell from the carpet and walls?

I've had one for several years. Its effective for distributing the scent gently around. I'm personally skeptical of any catalytic effect that they claim.

BTW, the expensive fuel is basically 91% isopropyl alcohol. So, you can buy the alcohol at Walmart cheap and add a little fragrance. I like essential oil of lemon.

Repeat: 91% isopropyl - not, the more common 80%.

Where does one get the oils? Wally World also?

We sell all the Lampe Berger stuff at the shop where I work. I haven't fired one up yet though to see how they work. Maybe I'll bring a small one home and try it out...

Theres a lot of smokers who use the "Neutral" scent after the smoke, and they swear by it.

They do have some scents in the craft department. I've been using essential oils from health food stores. I think similar stuff is used in soap making. Try looking around online. I think my last bottle was actually from eBay.

I would say it compares to spraying lysol in the bathroom... if you spray enough it will mask the smell. :-)

I believe they make a scent just for covering smoke. Most of the others work well but are not intended for masking smoke in particular.

Been using them for years. Like them a lot.

Found one I like :-)
[Reply]

That, I would! :-)

Nice choice, by the way.
[Reply]

Wow these things are pricey. :-)
[Reply]

Andrew, you can pick up a knock off for a lot less. Cheaper if you want to go that route.
[Reply]

Also, you can just buy the wick and burner assembly and stick it in a bottle. Do a Google on "Lampe Berger kits"

My wife bought me one last month. I use it every now and then. Seems to work pretty good, its just a matter of finder the right scent that suites your nose. Some of them are terrible.
