Can cigarette smoke be transferred from person to furniture?

I am not a smoker but I have some friends who often come round that are. When they come round they are really good and never smoke inside and go to the patio at the end of our garden, but they do always tend to have a smokey smell on their clothes/person.
Can the smell from their clothes be soaked up by my furniture/tv/walls etc? I just really hate the smell of smoke. Or is the smell just soaked into their clothes
Yes, it can be, but of course it is not as bad as if they were smoking in your place. Nicotine particles are so tiny that they adhere very easily to most surfaces.
It can, but not under the conditions mentioned by you. (Wooden) furniture is prone to absorb smells, but it needs a long period of time and a considerable amount of substance to make that happen. In other words, your furniture is safe!
