lungful
One complete breath
A lungful is the amount of air, smoke, or other substance that fills the lungs in a single breath: She took a lungful of fresh mountain air.
The word emphasizes capacity or intensity—you don't take a lungful of ordinary breathing, but of something notable: He inhaled a lungful of cigar smoke and coughed.
