What is it about tobacco that causes its smoke to seep into walls and linger when other burnt plant material does not (at least not nearly to the same degree)?

Now that I don’t smoke weed anymore, i can smell it on people in stores or outside houses where people are smoking – certainly lingering in homes. Admittedly nowhere near as bad as cigarettes
