If I can smell you when just I’m walking past your office, it’s way too much.
It used to be I would have to ask women from time to time to go easy on the perfume. Lately it has been all men. And I do say perfume when I ask them (always a great reaction).
Recently I had a guy deliver a new appliance. The hallway still reeked of his cologne two hours after he left, when he hadn’t been in my house for more than 5 minutes. I didn’t even think that was possible.
Once a person told me that the total sprays for a perfume are 4. 2 on the chest, left and right over the shirt, and 2 on the neck left and right. People with very short hair or without hair, can also spray once in the back neck. I follow this rule, and its big difference on the way the perfume develops as the time goes on. Remember, perfume have ingredients, that you will smell as the times goes on.
That still sounds too much
As someone with a functional nose. Literally any amount is too much.
Wash your self and leave it at that. The dead shit you spray yourself with is just as gag inducing as your swamp ass on day 3 of a con.
Some people just can’t get rid of BO and have to use deodorant.
This exactly, it’s all fucking nasty. As far as I’m concerned it’s like they’re all just walking around ripping farts and expect people to enjoy their smell.
Sounds too much, but its, not. It will be noticeable from the people around you and wont be strong.
I’ve always done left and right wrist, rub the wrists around my chest and neck. Maybe one spray for neck too depending on how strong it is.
Idk I also never spray anything over my clothes either that seems like too much. But hey at least you aren’t completely bathing yourself in it. It might still be too strong for people who are sensitive to smells. Just a thought.
my anosmic ass reading these comments: 🧍❔
Arabs: hold my aftershave.
I was even shown a trick by my friend’s dad that after a shower, I should go over to the insence burner and hold my hair over the smoke.
I don’t really have one of those, but I appreciated the experience.
„They“ is a neutral pronoun you can use to avoid the awkwardness of he/she
They is awkward, “he or she” is totally fine. Fight me
[Me, entering the office building] *sniff* Oh, $coworker is here today.
And they came through here 2 hours ago.
He left an hour ago too
I can smell when my neighbors opened their door, and I can even give an educated guess when it happened. It’s cigarette smoke in their case though.
Came here to say the same thing. I have a coworker who’s so consistent and heavy-handed with his cologne that I don’t ever have to visually check if he’s in the office or not.
Cologne/perfume should be discovered, not announced.
Ever walked past someone and started choking?
Why yes, I have in fact been to the Tacoma Mall. 😁
Thankfully my current office doesn’t have anyone I interact with like this, but at a previous job I’m pretty sure the dude bought cologne by the 55 gallon drum. It was painful.
When I was around 8 years old, my mother and I took a Greyhound bus across the country to visit the grandparents. We were sat next to a woman who was drenched in perfume. There’s a picture of me sitting next to said woman with my eyes absolutely streaming tears from being so badly irritated.
She’s a maniac. Maniac on perfume.
And she’s smelling, like she never smelled before!
As I always tell my 9th graders:
„If I can taste your perfume by walking past your classroom, it’s a tad too much.“
Why the fuck are 9th graders wearing perfume?
To cover up their vapes’ smell
Have you never once been in or even near a locker room? Blasting an ENTIRE can of axe body spray is something iv yet to find a single country doenst have a equivalent of.
9th grade is high school after all.
I’m asian so we don’t need deodorant
To „smell nice and impress the ladiestm“ Or a bit more honest: because of influencer-marketing.
9th grade in the states is high school level. I mean, it’s probably just body sprays, not actual cologne and perfume, and they might be self conscious about body odor being just past or still in puberty?
Kids should act like kids, perfume and cologne should be banned and confiscated in school, there’s no place in children’s schools for these distractions. It will hinder other kids from paying proper attention in class!
Did you drop your /s? If perfume and d
If you were to ban perfumes and colognes, would you ban scented deodorant? Out of everything students have to worry about…you think this distracts them?
Schools can provide free unscented deodorant
Tip: don’t hold your breath instead preserve the clean air in your lungs by taking rapid short breaths until loss of consciousness occurs
