The Sensory Smoking Simulator (5) performs by means of suction to draw smoke (33) from a cigarette (21a), only a small amount of which is smelled by the user (39). It is a main body (40) that includes an air motor (12) and a vacuum pump impellers (29) operating in two separate sections (41 and 42). The lower section (42) has a window (10) to connect with the ambient air and a mouthpiece (15) that yields a bitter taste. Means is provided so that when a person (39) inhales, air is draw into the lower section (42) and through the mouthpiece (15). The upper section chamber (41) has a cigarette receiver (24) and two passageways attached, one of them (35) to exhaust the cigarette smoke to ambient air, the other one (30) to let exhaust a lesser amount of smoke (33s) near the user's nose (31). The smell from cigarette smoke (33s) and the taste secreted from the mouthpiece (15) create a mental effect similar to that of smoking, but far less harmful to a person's health.
