Not everyone who loves cannabis wants — or can have — that telltale smell around them. Discreet and odor-free consumption is important to a lot of people, especially in shared public spaces or when there are other people around. This selection of solutions and discreet cannabis products is designed to enhance your experience while minimizing unwanted odors or skipping the smell altogether.
What products are best for discretion?
Edibles, vapes, and tinctures are best for discreetly consuming cannabis since they’re all odorless or close to odorless. For visual discretion, edibles may have a leg up on vapes since they look like everyday food items.
4 odor-free edibles to try
It’s not a secret that edibles reign supreme when it comes to discretion. Nobody’s the wiser when you take one — they look just like any other mint or chocolate you might snack on, and you can’t smell them to boot. Some examples of great New Jersey edible products you can try that won’t stink up your home include:
Encore Chocolate
Encore Chocolates offer a discreet weed experience that is both delicious and subtle. They’re available in Indica and Sativa versions and milk chocolate or caramel profiles so you can choose your own adventure. Their small size and familiar appearance make them perfect for consuming cannabis on the go or in social settings without drawing any looks. Each pack contains 10 chocolates, so you can easily control your dosage and enjoy a consistent experience every time.
Verano RSO Lozenges
RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) is a powerful cannabis concentrate, but it can be hard to measure out and eat because of its ultra-sticky nature. RSO gummies give you the best of both worlds. Aside from offering an exceptionally discreet way to consume cannabis, you won’t struggle with doling out this concentrate from a syringe.
Verano offers RSO gummies in convenient 10-packs, ensuring easy dosing and portability. With options like Concord Grape and Tropical Mango available, you can choose lozenges tailored to your specific needs and preferences, excellent for at home or on the move.
1906 drops
Drops from 1906 New Highs come in an odorless, easy-to-swallow pill format. With varieties like Chill, Genius, Go, and Bliss, each pill is crafted to deliver targeted effects, whether you’re looking to enhance creativity, promote relaxation, or elevate your mood. Uniquely, many 1906 formulations pair THC and other cannabinoids like CBD with other plant extracts. For example, the Chill formula includes magnolia and L-theanine, which may have relaxing properties, alongside 5mg THC and 25mg CBD per serving.
ButACake Choco Chunk Cookie
Dessert has rarely been more uplifting than with ButACAake’s Choco Chunk Cookie. The cannabis in this infused baked good is prepared via Azuca’s TiME INFUSION® process, which makes the cannabinoids “water-friendly” and therefore more likely to hit faster. The result is a consistent, controllable experience that starts about 20 minutes after the first bite. And it’s all within the discreet package of an everyday chocolate chunk cookie.
3 vapes that cut down on cannabis odor
If you prefer to inhale but don’t want to create a cloud, vape carts may be the right choice for you. Unlike joints and bowls that require a lighter, which is partially responsible for the smell associated with cannabis consumption, vapes use a battery to heat concentrate. The vapor cloud you exhale quickly dissipates, helping you dodge any eyebrow raises. Try some of these discreet vape products to check all your boxes.
Fernway Berry Haze disposable vape
The perfect choice if you keep forgetting your battery, disposable vapes eliminate the need for charging or maintenance. The Fernway Berry Haze Disposable stands out for its generous 2g of potent concentrate (most vape carts contain 1g or 0.5g of concentrate). You won’t run out anytime soon with a vape of this size. Reported effects include feelings of happiness, inspiration, relaxation, and an increased appetite.
&Shine Biscotti Disposable
Another excellent disposable vape option comes from &Shine. Crafted from a lineage of the Trainwreck and Hawaiian strains, the Pineapple Haze disposable vape is said to have buzzy and alert effects — all while keeping odors at bay.
Rythm Live Rosin Cartridges
If you have a battery and want to grab a cartridge, try something from Rythm. With strain varieties like Afternoon Delight, the terpene-rich live rosin cartridges are potent and efficient. Like the other vapes in this list, the clouds you exhale dissipate quickly, and there’s no lit paper or burnt plant material smell to deal with, either.
Try a tincture for a smokeless way to consume
Similar to edibles, tinctures don’t have a lingering scent that others can tell. While it’s not as simple to consume as a pill or a vape, tinctures are known for their fast-acting and long-lasting benefits that are well worth taking out the bottle and dropping the oil under your tongue.
Botanist tinctures
Tinctures like Botanist’s Calm and Soothe varieties enable discreet consumption while potentially providing, as their names suggest, a sense of calm. The Calm tincture contains a 2:1 CBD:THC ratio, whereas the Soothe tincture contains a 1:1:1: CBD:THC:CBC ratio — and both tinctures contain lavender, clove, and turmeric essential oils. With their convenient dropper design, you can effortlessly incorporate them into your daily routine without drawing any unwanted attention.
Do pre-rolls smell?
Pre-rolls have a noticeable smell. When you light a pre-roll, the combustion produces an odor that can linger in the air. The strength and duration of the smell can vary depending on the strain and the environment, but it is generally more pronounced compared to other forms of consumption.
Do vape carts smell?
Vape cartridges produce significantly less odor than smoking pre-rolls. The vapor emitted from vape carts dissipates quickly and is less pungent than the smoke from combusted cannabis, AKA products you need a lighter to enjoy. While there may be a faint aroma depending on the strain, it is usually minimal and is way less likely to linger or be as noticeable as smoke.
Do edibles smell?
The edibles sold at licensed dispensaries don’t have that unmistakable weed waft like flower or pre-rolls. Upon opening the package, there might be some lovely fruity, citrusy, or sweet aromas, but you might recognize a very small hint of cannabis smell — nothing that’s noticeable to others around you, though. Don’t mistake a lack of cannabis odor for low potency: Edibles are known for intense, long-lasting experiences.
What about dry herb vaping — does that smell?
Dry herb vaping still has a bit of an odor, but nowhere near as strong as joints or bongs. That’s because dry herb vaping skips the need for a lighter. Instead, these electronic devices use direct or indirect heat to bring your weed up to temperature — a much lower temperature than a flame — and convert the acidic cannabinoids in the plant into the active form you feel. This process does leave a bit of an odor, but it’s not as intense as other forms of consuming cannabis flower, and the smell is quick to disappear.
Tips for discreet cannabis consumption
Respectfully consuming cannabis requires a combination of mindfulness and practical strategies. By employing these helpful tips, you can consume without the funny looks.
- Opt for low-odor products: Discretion isn’t the best time to break out your rolling tray or a pack of pre-rolls. The best way to not call attention to your cannabis is to try products with less intense aromas. It’s all about keeping things low-key and inconspicuous, so you’ll probably want to consider the options above, like vaporizers or edibles.
- Crack the windows: Keep the air flowing to prevent lingering smells from building up. Open windows or use fans to circulate the air and dissipate cannabis odors. You can also consider investing in filters like the Smokebuddy to ensure you’re not disturbing anyone with the smells that often linger in the air.
- Mindful storage: Keep more pungent cannabis products like flower in an airtight container to trap odors and prevent them from permeating your space. This will also help preserve the potency and freshness of your products.
- Clean accessories regularly: Make it a habit to give your smoking or vaping accessories a good scrub to minimize odor buildup and ensure a smoother, more enjoyable experience. You can use alcohol wipes, pipe cleaners, or other specialized cleaning tools to remove any residue or buildup contributing to unwanted smells.
