Why can I still smell orange in a bottle that I have washed 10x?

Asked by orangy (13points) October 22nd, 2008

I thought glass was impervious to liquids/smells. I have a glass beverage bottle used for an orange soda that I have repurposed for filtered water. No matter how many times I have washed it by hand or in the machine the water smells like orange. It does not bother me, I was just wondering why the smell lingers?
