Curry/Spice/Fish/Strong Cooking Smells... allowed?

[Jon K.]

In another thread, someone mentioned that they banned all candles.

Can you ban candles and incense?

Can you actually ban strong curry and cooking smells that linger on property?

We've all been in places that reek from previous tenants. Whether it's animal pee, curry cooking, etc. where the scents linger long past when the previous tenant moved out, some smells are hard to get out. Is curry really that costly?

I know extensive curry cooking leaves an oil residue in a kitchen, along with the smell of it. Can oil residue and lingering smells be taken out of deposits?

If you ban these things, how? Is it some "quiet enjoyment" clause?
Is it just banning things that disturb neighboring apartments (curry, noise)?

I've never signed a lease on previous apartments where candles, smelly cooking, etc. was banned. I never would have guessed it could be banned. I wouldn't sign a lease that banned candles, and I don't think I would sign a lease that specified what I could cook. On the other hand, I wouldn't live in a place that smelled like curry, strong spices, smoke, etc.

NO, I don't ban cooking spices, curry, candles, etc. Never thought of banning it.
I do ban smoking, citing fire risks, damage, and second-hand effects of smoke.

I would deduct it from the deposit because this is not just normal wear and tear.
