You’re insane if you think perfume is as bad as cigarette smoke. And I’m no fan of overly strong perfumes.

DP but to some of us it's just as bad. But I love how anyone with a different opinion from yours is "insane".

Really? You think saying perfume is as bad as cigarette smoke is a sane statement?

I think cigarette smoke is preferable to air freshener. Air freshener penetrates everything -- hair, clothing, coats, backpacks. It's cheap and nasty. Cigarette smoke is pleasant by comparison.

I was in a store not long ago when a woman walked by wearing perfume. I started coughing and choking. Asthma does that, it isn't just a dislike of smells.

My oldest son was a severe asthmatic as a child. We would end up in the ER over someone's favorite scent. More than one attack could have been fatal.

Would you rub peanuts in an allergic person's face, and then slough it off as that person being too sensitive?

Peanut allergies can induce anaphylaxis. Perfume does not. Stop with the drama.

Being unable to breathe properly (airways constricting while also becoming inflamed) tends to be a little dramatic. It would be lovely if some people could at least admit that they don't know much about asthma.

Literally everyone but you and me. And literally every office and classroom and bus doctor's office etc. It's everywhere. Literally.

Sorry, I will keep wearing a minuscule dab of J'Adore, or Poison, my two favorite perfumes. I have a very sensitive sense of smell and a tiny dab goes a very long way. Feel free to tell me that you can't stand the way I smell. I won't be offended, but I will keep doing something non-lethal that makes me happy.

Also, my son has anaphylactic allergies to peanuts and tree nuts, and I do not appreciate that people like you demand that others cater to their sensitivities when others need to carry Epipens for their lethal allergies and navigate potentially deadly situations, often daily, without making a big deal out of it. As a general rule, I've noticed that the people with the biggest burdens in life don't make the most noise.

now you're just minimizing others' struggles to justify your perfume habit. I had an asthma attack and had to leave a conference because of someone's cologne.

I have literally never been able to send a peanut butter sandwich to school the entire time my kids have been at school and instead I’ve bought expensive as hell Sunbutter. That’s a way bigger PITA than not wearing perfume to work.

You are selfish.

Perfume and cologne is gross - Most people overdo it. I wish you knew we can smell you from ten feet away and after you leave the elevator. Yuck.

NP. I have asthma and I wear perfume. If it triggers you, leave. It's not my problem.

Asthma is not your biggest problem. You're lacking basic decency.

Oh...well...if it doesn't trigger YOUR asthma, then no one should complain.

You are an insufferable a-hat.
