I don't see a problem at all with that scent. IMO it just makes it really easy to decide what I am smoking in there: auto picked by default Lakeland Warrior Pipe!

If it is a pipe that you absolutely do not want to smoke delicious Lakeland snot out of for some reason, then there are some solutions. Smoking a couple ounces of PA through a pipe that you have already done a few SA treatments through usually knocks out the bulk of a ghost. Then you can convert it to a Lat pipe pretty easily. Start smoking a couple ounces of a real Lat bomb through there and much of the essence will take a back seat to the Latakia.

So in review; 2 SA treatments, 2-3 ounces of Prince Albert, and then 2-3 ounces of a heavy duty Latakia blend usually equals new English pipe.

Also, there is ozone treatments, supposedly they re guaranteed to kill any ghost every time. Spendy though.
