Yes, but if it wasn't for successive governments making it an issue that they want everyone to stop smoking, you'd never hear about passive smoking either - ignoring the contribution that smokers make to the exchequer (and I am aware that this in an involuntary tax), no government can afford for everybody to stop smoking.
More to the point, how do people know that sniffing perfume or deodorant etc isn't harmful to others - I'm sure that it isn't but I couldn't give a definitive answer. The issue there is simply that those make you smell nice (for a while anyway), whereas smoking doesn't.
