I love perfume myself but it’s personal taste you don’t want to be gassed by someone else’s choice .
Better than walking through a corridor of smokers puffing their heads off outside shops pubs etc .
When my daughter lived with me she always used the liquid detergents for her washing.
When she took them out of the washing machine, you would have laughed at the sight of me diving out of the front door, gasping for fresh air.
The same when people pass me in the street or in a store, l can smell the pungent soap powder aroma coming from their clothes.

My ‘smell’ is of freshly bathed and hair washed in expensive Paul Mitchell shampoo.
I can take subtle perfumes on other people but not the powerful ones like Youth Dew, Poison or their modern equivalent that take over everyone else’s ‘space’.

Yes, you’re right! May. I should be banned from leaving my home as l am just a Moaning Mini! You use Youth Dew? Oh Dear, you’ll excuse me, whilst l bolt it. I’m too young to die!

I hate these plug in artificial air fresheners, yuk! It would be easier to ban them in public places but I can't see it happening.
I wonder why?

You must’ve noticed that l started this thread after reading the ‘perfume’ thread that you started.Yes, a smellometer sounds a good idea. It could have an added hose to reduce the pungency!
I even come out of the dental practice l go to, smelling of my dentist!

But the workplace is a different deal. You can't smoke, talk, smile, eat, drink (anything) tell a joke, break wind, say something nice to somebody else or even bloody sit down sometimes in workplaces these days. So I can't see why perfumes and colognes couldn't be banned. There so many people looking for work I think you tell them to come to work in a suit of armour - odourless of course - and some of them would to get a job
Seeing as l and other sufferers are the problem. Maybe, we should wear one of those clear plastic globes on our heads when we go out amongst the public!
