I do. I dislike it when I'm riding the bus in the area reserved for disabled passengers and someone gets on the bus wearing so much perfume that I can taste it in my mouth.

Just wondering how many people feel this way?

Yup. I hate it. Especially if someone is on medications that make them hyper aware, or have cognitive/sensory disabilities (I have sensory processing disorder) it's a bloody nightmare.

I find it is just as offensive as if they hadn't bathed at all. I have trouble with strong scents and they can make me nauseous and even give me a headache. I am so glad that the place I go to for Physical therapy forbids people to wear strong scents when they visit the facility.

OH heck yes. I have asthma, and someone with either smoke or perfume stench can trigger me.

The thing that I don't get is the ones that reek so badly that they surely confused the perfume with their soap.

I would rather someone with some BO instead of the stench.

No matter where they are, too much scent is disrespectful to the people around you. No one needs that much perfume and if they do they should just have a shower instead.

I've lost count of how many asthma attacks I've had because of a customer who seems to have bathed in the stuff. Do you think I could have them charged with assault? lol

Or if I were to die from it would that be murder?
