I still choose to wear my mask in public places like retail stores, because COVID is still very real.

I still wear a mask in stores, but it's mainly because I don't want to breath in whatever is flaking off the 400+ pound man in stained pajamas waddling around the Walmart. A lower chance of spreading or catching COVID is just gravy IMO.

I'm pretty sure masks don't block most smells.

It won't block the smell, but it will block most particulates coming off them. Like... if some of it flakes off, do you really want some what ever those suspicious stains on his pajama bottoms are in your lungs?
