I can only wear a lightly scented lotion, vanilla, mango cucumber etc. everything else, I cant breath! Chokes me up in church, I think those people cant smell themselves.

I love fragrance but am aware that it bothers a lot of people so I try to not apply it with a "lead hand".
I don't like perfume at all but light mists and scented lotions.
Someone mentioned Patchouli at the farmer's market- I've noticed the same thing LOL
I've also noticed scents smell different on different people. My sister has one that I adore on her but not on me.
My favorite shampoo of all time is Victoria's Secret So Sexy- it smells wonderful!!!!!!! :)

i love wearing perfume..it used to be my only indulgence.(before fabric and learning how to quilt)
once a year i would buy myself a bottle of cologne.
since i learned to quilt..i have 2 friends that have sensitive noses, so i quit wearing it. no biggy, i wear it on special occasions only.

A neighbor was wearing one of them when I was riding with her - nice fragrance, but it made my nose run and eyes water.

I love cologne.... if it is subtle as I am sensitive. I wear it occassionally.

My husband is one who USED to wear it heavy. I remember getting in the car with him when we were going somewhere and simply could not breathe due to his heavy hand with the cologne. After my gentle coaxing.... he has lightened up on it. Thank goodness.

I simply can not be in the same building if someone sprays a scented aerosol deordorizer. Oh my.... bad news for me.

I don't use perfume very much, but Casper sure likes to steal a lid off of one of my perfume bottles and takes off with it in his mouth to bat it around in the kitchen. He also loves to take a tweezer out of a perfume stand in the bathroom and hides it. Takes me a while to notice it missing. That IMP! :lol:

I use fragrance, but I go easy. I enjoy it, but don't need to share with others! Some even I can't handle-including patchouli.

I have 3 favorites that I wear lightly and not around my
face and neck, spray my lower body...some strong perfumes
will immediately give me a headache...
