I concur. The mask has been better than I anticipated. My major complaint is that it's sometimes hard to keep air from coming out the top when I exhale, and my glasses can fog up. It's great with goggles during the winter, though...actually keeps the face warmer.
I've ridden in 90's temps in Chicago with it already. I like to think it simulates training in the mountains. I've also noticed less lung irritation when using it in traffic, and even on my weekend rides without it, I find it's a bit harder to breathe after a good ride. I definitely recommend anyone riding in urban areas to use one of these.
Funny that you say you can't smell anything. Maybe it's my fit, but I notice I can smell things even when wearing it (hot dog stands, weird exhaust, paint nearby).
