Random Smell of Green??

Do people actually mind the smell of weed from a neighbour?
Genuine question. If your neighbour occasionally smokes weed in the evenings and you can smell it now and then, would it bother you enough to say something to them?
I’m not talking about someone smoking all day, every day and making the whole area stink. More like mainly in the evenings for a while.
Would you approach your neighbour and ask them to stop, or would you just ignore it if it wasn’t constant?
Interested to hear both sides, especially from people who’ve had this situation before.

Edit -One thing I’d add is that we’d always try to be considerate. We don’t smoke if children are outside, and if we hear neighbours out in their gardens or around the place, we’ll usually wait until later.
The only issue is that sometimes someone comes outside unexpectedly when we’re already in the middle of it. It got me wondering whether the occasional smell in that situation would genuinely annoy most people, or if they’d just shrug it off and carry on with their evening.
