My clean clothes don't have an offensive odor that needs covering up. I just happen to LIKE the scent of fabric softners, so I use them.
Yeah, I figure a lot of people like the scent of strong, fake perfume on their clothes; otherwise the manufacturers wouldn't bother selling it.
As a sidenote:
Many hospitals, clinics, dental offices, etc., have signs posted requesting people (both employees and patients) to not wear perfumes or perfumed items. I love that! That is the rule in the places I go to and have worked at.
A few years ago I had to spend the night in the hospital and everything was fine until the morning nurse came into the room and ALL I could smell was her nasty fabric softner. I knew it was fabric softner; there's just no mistaking that fake odor. (I always wonder if the people who use it are aware of that.)
Since she didn't get the workplace memo, or even read the signs in her own workplace, I felt I had to report her on the survey handed out to patients. I KNOW I'm not the only one who would have been bothered by that; otherwise there wouldn't be the rule. It's like: "Hey, we're in the hospital and we don't feel good, so please stop invading the space with that nastiness!"... geez!
Hubby has taken to powdering his manly parts with baby powder in hot weather. This just seems wrong....to make your nuggets smell like a baby.
This is a common misconception. Baby powder is not actually made of babies. So called "Baby" powder is actually made of a powdered, finely textured clay. Babies have little to nothing to do with its production or its scent.

Next you're going to tell us baby oil is not made by squeezing babies....
I apparently have been living my whole life under a rock. I Googled "Patchouli scent" and still don't believe I've ever encountered it.
For me, it's the amplitude of the scent that bothers me. I'm on a business trip to the Denver office. The guy in the next office uses some cologne you can smell from 30 feet away. It takes minutes to disperse after he walks by.
The other smell I can't stand is the smell of baby powder. It feels like I just walked past someone who didn't shower and just tossed on some baby powder to cover it up.
LOL, baby powder is one of my favorite scents.
I don't like heavy florals, too cloying, and I don't like "baked goods" type scents unless they are, in fact, baked goods.
Heavy, musky/amber type scents are hit and miss with me. I actually liked some patchouli as a teen/young adult, but I prefer it much less these days.
I mostly prefer very light, clean scents with citrus notes, or herbal notes, like rosemary or lavender.
Chemical smell of someone having their nails or hair done. Not sure which but it is a smell that gets me to walk out of a room. I have my hair cut from this guy that rents a chair in a salon. Can not take that chemical smell. I try to get in there first thing on a Saturday morning before the Hens get there.
