I am not speaking of those who use fragrance correctly, it when a person sits 3 tables over, and all you can smell is their Cologne or perfume.
Waitress boxed up two tables, sitting next to his table, that couldn’t continue their meal. So maybe not a life threatening issue, but causing one to loose their appetite just makes your dining experience sad.

If my life choices causes impact to you, then I would make changes. Just like sitting next to a heavy smoker, when you don’t smoke.

I don’t worry about things I can’t change, but many things I can change so I don’t have to worry.
Hubby and I have moved to another seat in a movie theater, clear across the area where someone was wearing a very heavy application of perfume. I'm not allergic but find that I am not a happy camper when I have to be "assaulted" by someone's scent.
