fume +‎ -acious

Adjective[edit]

fumacious (comparative more fumacious, superlative most fumacious)

  1. Smoky.
  2. Fond of smoking tobacco.
    • 1861, Atlantic Monthly:
      Rustic females who habitually chew even pitch or spruce-gum are rendered thereby so repulsive that the fancy refuses to pursue the horror farther and imagine it tobacco; and all the charms of the veil and the fan can scarcely reconcile the most fumacious American to the cigarrito of the Spanish fair.
