Default Burnt Clutch Smell

Does it EVER go away? I am at 1000km now and every time I slip the clutch at ~1800rpm it SMELLS. 1200-1300rpm is fine, which is what I try to do, but it is not always possible (hills) and I sometimes rev it up a little more by accident as it is my first manual car. As far as I understand, a single 1800rpm launch should not be burning my clutch. The smell is definitely related to slipping to clutch.
