Please read and learn... I loved perfume myself for many years.. even sprayed my bed when I put on clean sheets.... silly fool..... so think about all perfumed products, fabric conditioners are one of the worst with all the synthetic perfumes.. especially for babies and children who dont have a fully matured immune system... very dangerous.. http://allnaturalbeauty.us/chemicals...s_jrussell.htm
I agree. The smoke also sticks to the clothing. I can always smell when someone smokes, messes with my allergies and the smoke (even from vaping) messes with my asthma.
How can vapor mess with your asthma? It dissipates within a second or less, it is vapor, there is no tobacco in it and many don't have nicotine either.
I would rather smell cigarette smoke than fragrance put on to attempt to cover body odor from not bathing.

Never smoked and dont know much about these vape ciggies.. but read this ..
So far, evidence suggests that e-cigarettes may be safer than regular cigarettes. Since nothing is burned in the process, e-cig vapour lacks the tar and carbon monoxide found in cigarette smoke. Most of the 7,000 chemicals in cigarette smoke are also missing from e-cig vapor. However, e-cigarette users do inhale chemicals that are known to be toxic and, in some cases, carcinogenic. When heated, ingredients in the nicotine solution can turn into formaldehyde, which is known to cause cancer. Newer e-cigs allow users to adjust the temperature to a point where the formaldehyde level can be as high — or even higher — than in traditional cigarettes. Studies have also found that the vapor can include chemicals released by the devices themselves. These include silicate particles, aluminum, lead and tin.

And so do fragrances. A friend wanted a hug and she was wearing her toxic waste perfume. . . after I got home I had to throw my clothes in the wash to get rid of the stench. Also will transfer to your skin . . only way to get rid of it is to take a shower and wash your hair.
I remember a gal at work who said she wore perfume because her boyfriend loves it - fine, then wear it when you're with him!
It seems women that smokes often uses very strong perfumes too. They don't cancel each other! They make perfumes smell awful.
Yes. I had a co-worker who wore lots of perfume. In those days, people were allowed to smoke at their desks and she was only a few feet away. The combination of smoke smell and overpowering perfume was nauseating.
She was the nicest, sweetest person you could ever hope to work with and I know she didn't mean harm to anyone, but...
I went to HR and told him the smell was making me sick (true) and that I had to have every outfit dry cleaned after one wearing, so it was costing me money too.
Their solution was to get her a smokeless ashtray. Typical HR-missing-the-point. Those things don't really work.
They each have their own smell, putting them together is just that. No worse IMO.
I think women spray themselves with perfume to hind the smell of smoking on them. It doesnt cut the smell. I have had lots of women, nice looking women pass me in the supermarket, and a second later, that stink hits you. I wouldnt get near these women. They smoke they dont smell the stink, or the addiction has them and they just dont care. A beautiful woman smoking, is not the most attractive thing to see. But to each his / her own. They pair up and their troubles are over.

Back in the 80s I literally begged HR to develop and implement a 'no-fragrance' policy; they looked at me as though I'd just landed from Mars.
Twenty years later I approached HR at another job and was given the deer-in-the-headlights response. Finally, the HR gal said, "Well, it sounds like you are the one with a problem, I suggest you talk to anyone who is wearing perfume and ask if they'll stop wearing it."
Now here's the kicker: this same HR person who said that I had a problem - when her 'pet' said perfume made her sick, the HR gal immediately sent out an all-employee e-mail asking people to refrain from wearing perfume/cologne. Amazing!! Ah well, at least it helped to keep the cloud of toxic stench out of the office!
