Perfume and aftershave.
Perfume
I don't wear it myself anymore, and although my other senses aren't up to par, my nose still knows what it is doin'. OLD perfume smells old. It changes it's fragrance. Please sniff yours and if it is old, PLEASE throw it out. Some fragrances are delightful. I have heard others complain at gatherings about perfume. Some are allergic to the smell and it gives them a headache. Most of the comments aren't positive. What do you folks think? Do you wear it? Do you like it? Do you give it to your love as a gift? What is your favorite fragrance? I used to wear Ciara.

It depends on if you can smell it on someone in the next aisle of the grocery store (true story). I like to test it out in department stores by spraying a mist into the air and then walking into it. Very little actually remains on me.
If I can smell perfume on another person (unless I'm hugging them), my feeling is they are wearing too much of it. I wouldn't wear it enough to keep a bottle on hand. It would get old.

You hit my hot button! Saturday we were enjoying breakfast out, when a man sat down at a nearby table. He reeked so strongly of aftershave or cologne that we had to get up and and eat outside. It was so nauseating, we couldn't finish our meal in the same room with him. Others were also affected by the stench. CFrance is right...if you can smell it and it's not your own you're smelling, it's too strong.

I am fortunate. Not bothered by scents. My husband wears obsession, which I love love love. I wear Laila, the essence of Norway, which we purchase at Epcot.

I'm a wearer and a smeller.
I wear, not strong, but receive positive comments post-hug. I do like SOME perfumes on ladies...........like everything, it's a personal preference. There are some that I don't like, no matter how strong or softly scented. I have smelled perfume while golf cart driving......worse than gas fumes. |

If worn sparingly, it's something that enhances one's being. By sparingly, I mean someone has to hug you, to even detect the fragrance.
Those who are affected by fragrances, any is too much!!! Some companies now have policies, against wearing perfume/colognes. Those who dive into the bottle even annoy me, as their scent can be detected from across the room, and then some. Some people use too much of it and it makes me wonder, if they bothered to bath.

Worn lightly.
Worn lightly can be so sexy. I would not wear any if my friend or companion was allergic. Do some people overuse it rather than a shower if in a hurry?

Lightly scented not bad, but when you leave vapor trail outside five minutes after you walked by IS A BIT MUCH. I am suffer from migraines due to brain tumor side effects. If I am closed in and someone over scented I immediately leave. I also can't take crowd noises, I've learned to live with my uniqueness
And don't expect others to alter there life style. |

Used to work with a lady that wore "Red".. anyone remember that stink? Anyway, the company had to rule no perfume due to this lady's scent entering the room before she did..

I don't know what nuns or priest do but as a kid recalled they had such a clean distinctive scent. Perhaps the solutions used to clean their garments. Smells = memories and in my travels in upstate new york would step out of the car in September and smell the sweet aroma of grapes being harvested to make wine. Deep deep breathes I would take the aroma was intoxicating |
