I'm wide awake now and I would actually touch it too

There's so much fuss about perfumes. For me, if the woman looks good, even if she stinks like CRAP, something converts that into fragrance for my nostrils. Is this a pathological condition?

In my youth, I wrote a poem for my girl, looooooong back, which became useless eventually, but the poem can still be reused.

The specific stanza goes like (from my memory):
Artificially fragrant or not,
we can still tie the knot,
Even if you radiate stench,
you convolute my liver with a wrench

I'm not using it anymore.

I'm sort of bothered for the following reaction:

"Eeeeeeeeeww, OMG, Shakespeare alert!"

just a friendly reminder ---so many of us are allergic or very sensitive to your perfumes.........a little dab will do ya but might darn near kill us!! Be especially courteous with your choice of scents on planes and in doctor's offices!! Thanks!

There is nothing so appealing as the smell of clean, without additives. So many people have issues with fragrances, I really wish more women as well as men would simply be clean with just a freshly shampooed head. All fragrances and colognes belong in the toilet.

Hey....I live down here in the sweat box of the world. We have to use something or we will all stink.

I'm more partial to shower type body sprays unless it is a "special" occasion....then I might put on something a little sweeter.

I'm with AliceT on this issue. I have had to leave more concerts, dinners, plays and other events than I can count, just in order to keep breathing. Scent may be a fun way for folks to enhance your fashion choices, but your choice to use those scents literally makes it impossible for others of us to survive in the same room with you.

Centuries ago, people used heavy scents and perfumes to cover up the body odors that were inevitable when soap and water were not commonly used. That's not necessary today. And yes, I have lived in a semi-tropical latitude, and yes, I know it's not easy in those areas to keep from stinking, but "not easy" does not equate to "impossible."

In my admittedly jaundiced opinion, plain old unscented soap and water is still the most powerful aphrodisiac ever invented.

add being confined to the cabin of an airplane. It's bad enough if anyone has on perfume or cologne but when the person seated right next to you decided to share her choice of perfumes in this tiny little space for 5 hours and what I ended up with was a raging migraine then sinus issues the entire trip. Thanks Ms had to wear perfume
