Nobody can control what everybody else has on their hair or skin. If you're allergic that badly, why not put your hands up before the hug and ask if the person is wearing perfume. It isn't easy to move away and say I'm allergic to perfume but it's a reasonable and assertive way to cope.
I think we're talking about overuse here. At least I was, anyway. If it permeates the car, it's overuse. If it rubs off on the person you're hugging, it's overuse. Otherwise, bring on your Chanel #5!

I gave up wearing perfume when it became obvious so many people were allergic to it.
