I can so relate to everyone who wishes to escape the cloying heavy nauseating perfumes which some folks seem to bathe in.

It is not pleasant to be in the company of one or many of those who drench themselves in powerful scents. Freshly bathed wins out in the long run.

Nowadays, so many have allergies to perfume. Actually, I haven't worn perfume or cologne for a very long time now........it actually started with the bees and hornets and wasps being so attracted to the scent......when we'd go for a hike in the foothills........

Totally insect free now that I've gone cold turkey on the perfume.

For those who must wear a scent.........there used to be nice cream sachets which can be applied lightly to each wrist..........just for a "hint" of scent. Nothing overpowering. You can still hug people without knocking them over.
