I ask this because currently I'm at work and slowly dying by another's cologne LOL. Of course it is also the ONE men's cologne that I totally despise. Unfortunately no air freshener to be found to cover it up. I tried my hairspray but that lasted about 5 minutes before the cologne from hell won that battle!

I don't usually use perfumes or colognes as I have allergies to most florals. But yup, I agree, when someone bathes in the stuff...ugh!
We have one woman in my building who must layer the stuff on from shower to work because you can literally smell her from down the hall (about 3 rooms away!).

I'll use an anti-persperant for everday use but on nights out or special occasions I'll dab a bit of the ol cologne round the gills

Well I think it is OK as long as it is used in moderation LOL. This guy in my office though went waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overboard. I can't imagine what the client feels like right now sitting right across from him in his office, bet he is turning green.

I use anti-persperant too, I like the one that has no smell. I really hate strong prefume/cologne. The strong smell of it nearly choke me to death.

My nose is quite sensitive at the best of times, the smell of strong scent can set me off sneezing.
I mean do people really think that a strong overpowering smell is attractive? Personally I find a nice freshly washed smell with maybe a hint of some scent that you can't quite place to be most attractive on a bloke.

Well I'm going to get some lunch, and FRESH AIR!! Seriously, this is sickening me and frankly beginning to piss me off too. Please yall pray for me, chant, cast air spells LOL, maybe send me a cyber bottle of Stench Begone, just anything to help this guy leave the office before I return. His client has left now, I'm crossing my fingers and nose!

I don't wear cologne, and haven't in years. I never figured I stunk that badly [img]smile.gif[/img]
Unfortunately, some people seem to have underdeveloped proboscuses (probosci?), and must apply the stuff until they can smell it... [img]graemlins/1puke.gif[/img]

I dab some homemade stuff on my pulse points.. Usually a jasmine oil concoction. It's quite strong, and I'm aware of it. So I use hardly any.
Just enough so that it's difficult to detect when I'm standing still. You just get a whiff when I approach, and when I leave. I love it... It gives you an almost mysterious air.

All I need is the air that I breath...
He finally left!!!!!! Whoohooo! Now I guess I won't leave work early then. I told my boss I had to leave early to meet someone LOL (lie)  because I truly could not stand it anymore and it was beginning to look like he wasn't ever going to leave!Now I reckon he is off to destroy some other office's ozone layer LOL [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] |
