now listen here. my musky odor smells exactly and precisely like a beaver’s anus, crossed with bacon, which as you might recall shares a scent with vanilla. in fact it is called vanillin. then crossed with bacon. my stench has been called by seventeen heads of state, princesses and poodles, and i now begin to quote thusly, “sexilicious”. I have finished the quote. I require neither parfum nor cologne to cover any bee oh.
No. It’s both. Too much perfume or cologne is almost as bad as just bad bo or a mix of the 2.
Bad BO makes me wretch.
Cologne and Perfume gives me a headache and clogs up my sinuses.
With those powers combined…
I’m physically ill from someones olfactory assault.
If I can smell a person at all from more than 3 feet away. I instantly have a negative opinion of them.
Nah,the cologne is just as much of an issue
-signed, someone very sensitive to smells
I read a long time ago to do 1 spritz of cologne to the middle of the chest (for guys), ideally right after showering. I think the body heat and it usually being covered up by clothing helps with the overall scent. Can’t remember the details.
Also, mom told me when I was a teen, “The only person who should be able to smell your cologne is the person hugging you.” That’s always been my guide.
It can also depend on you body chemistry some colognes will smell better on someone else but maybe not you. Ive found it good to get a third party’s opinion after youve been wearing it for a couple hours so that most/all of the alcohol has evaporated and the scent has time to set in. Some sents can go really stale where others can mature quite nicely.
When I was younger I was told, “your cologne should be discovered, not announced.”
I do 2-3 sprays on my left wrist, dab my two wrists together, then dab my wrists on my neck. Still follows the same rules of only the person hugging you should smell your cologne.
I have no idea what’s better, but I just looked it up, and people recommend NOT rubbing it on anywhere because it can cause the fragrance to change because of heat, so just dabbing it on is fine.
If you ain’t glistening, are they even listening?!

That sprintz trick and the advice u were given are solid but I also wonder If it is too much to wear cologne in summer heat…
What’s B.O.?
Body odor
15 year old me need this advice
Bathing in cologne/perfume is the issue, body odor or not.
flashbacks to high school where some of the boys smelled… bad… like skidmarks and not showering for 5 days mixed with half a can of Lynx Africa
It’s both, it’s both.
It can be both, but I’ve definitely been punched in the face by pure cologne/perfume on multiple occasions. Probably even more often than I’ve ever smelled BO equally as bad, including my own on those lazy stay at home days.
Though I do try my best to not get within smelling range of others regardless, so maybe cologne just has a larger radius most of the time. I’m definitely not sniffing pits to see how their BO mixes with what ever extra rank they’ve added…
To be fair, if you start regularly showering and keep up with the same amount of cologne, the cologne will become the problem. As it is, the cologne is a problem, along with at least one or two other more serious problems.
Yep anyone who’s played in any amount of card game tournaments knows this
Or gone to smash tournaments. Luckily the weekly I run doesn’t have a lot of stinkers but there have been a few over the years.
If I have to travel by public transportation and I need to decide between someone who thinks they’re using perfumes moderately or a homeless drunk with shit in their pants - it’s always the drunk. Sure shit, piss, sweat, human-grease and old substances are nasty and unpleasant smells. But those don’t cause migraine and asthma for me.
Instant sharp pain to the temple, visual auras immediately blur half of the vision, brain shuts off, great experience
Being a walking chemical warfare should be a crime against humanity
Sad to hear you got the auras too!
Ugh. I’ve had a teacher who wore so much perfume, it made my eyes and nose itch. But I’ve also experienced homeless people who made an entire bus unusable. It’s just both too much.
(any decently sized) city already smells like piss and shit though
I has this experience this morning. Still haven’t recovered. Feel bad for the guy…
I haven’t worn cologne since Drakkar Noir in 1992
My teenaged boys haven’t learned this lesson yet. I’ve tried telling them not to overdo the body spray/ cologne/ whatever, but they don’t seem to believe me.
Pay a girl to walk by them and go, “Oh, smells like a dead animal” to herself. A few coughs would help.
That should give your boys the heads up that they reek.
I’m pretty sure that’s what my parents did to me! Ha ha ha ha… :-(
Helloooooooo high school PE memories of the locker room getting fogged with Axe body spray
Also the pungent smell of unwashed sweaty ass 🤢 Good ol’ days…
I totally disagree with this. I would much rather smell too strong of a cologne over your Bo then just your Bo
Cologne can make BO smells worse because the VOC that make cologne smell can pick up the BO molecules and make them smell even worse
Just let me smell the BO without the stinky cologne. 😬
One smell will dissipate(easily blocked out), the other is just noxious.
