Pretty much that's the way it is in Denmark. There's no law prohibiting someone from smoking heavily, even if the smoke drifts into his neighbors living spaces. That's their problem, not his. And even if there was a law like that I'm not sure I'd invoke it. I believe people have the freedom to smoke if that's what makes them happy.
Individual landlords can lay down whether or not smoking inside apartments is permitted. An increasing number prohibits it since it makes the apartment harder to sell afterwards, and its expensive to clean sufficiently if the smoker was a heavy smoker.
I had a neighborly chat with him, and he's agreed to open his windows while smoking. That's made it better, but the stench still builds up if I close mine. I'll talk to the janitor and see if I can't figure out how the smoke gets down to where I am, and whether we can't seal that connection somehow.
