Some think that other people are the only ones who smell.


Who in their right mind would go further than perfume?

An anonymous person.




Named Lulu?

The weird thing is, I'd never wear it. I can't tolerate the smell of most synthetic perfumes. I make my own perfume oil with essential oil of bulgarian rose, jasmine absolute, and neroli in a jojoba carrier base.

Very few commercial perfumes don't make me wheeze: Sunflowers, Eau d'Hadrien by Annick Goutal, Love's Fresh Lemon, and a particular brand of "rain musk" (which isn't actually musk, and doesn't smell anything like rain).

If I'm going to a department store I have to hold my breath while walking through the perfume section. They always put it at the main entrance. I stare daggers at any salesperson who attempts to douse me with the latest and greatest spray bottle.

I cannot abide strong perfume/cologne in closed places. When we hire a car to take us to the airport I always ask for no scent in the car including air fresheners and personal scents. With the driver's forbearance all is well.

I do NOT understand why some stores like Bed Bath and Beyond and that other one,...……Kirklands! are....

OVERSCENTED.

I would stay in there longer and buy more if they were not.

Good point, it's certainly not just females...who do it in excess.

That is a good question. It seems anymore on this Forum people outdo each other to be mean.

Nucky, I think you should upgrade to Axe, you can get it at Walmart.

I think you can get a better deal on Old Spice as opposed to AXE.
Besides, Old Spice has been around for much longer than Axe and is tried and true.

And yes -- Wally World probably sells that, too.

And we won't mention fungus and bunions, will we???

But we will talk about wearing socks and sandals (at the same time!), won't we?

Go on, Steve -- start a new thread because, with this one, I'm beginning to smell a fish!
