[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't you perfume fans smell the metal-scent in perfumes, even high end ones? Why do you want that on you?

I guess I can't. What is a metal-scent? Copper? Aluminum? [/quote]

There is a metallic undertone to most commercial perfumes, almost like a vague scent of iron.

I have an excellent sense of smell and I smell things that my husband can't, so maybe I am more sensitive.[/quote]
It’s not metal. Your nose may be sensitive, but it’s way off base (pun totally intended). There are several mainstream perfumes with really nasty base notes, but metal is a supremely uncommon note. The last one I can think of is Estée Lauder Dazzling Silver, which Turin and Sanchez says had a “sucked spoon quality” from the helionol. I had it, I loved it, it’s been discontinued for about 10 years. Metal is not a common note.
- I also have a very sensitive nose [/quote]
Shrug. I don't know what else to tell you. There is an artificial metallic scent I detect with most (but not all) perfumes. It's noticeable to me. Maybe it is the underlying chemicals, I don't know. But I smell it for sure. [/quote]
I know you think your amazing sense of smell is detecting a metallic smell, but you really should get a full medical workup. Smelling a metallic scent can be indicative of a serious health issue. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/322698[/quote]

I'd worry if I smelled it in anything other than perfume. Look, you seem oddly hostile to the idea that the perfumes you splash on yourself have a strange scent. Not my problem. I am not telling you not to wear them, I am saying they smell weird. Obviously your nose isn't sensitive enough to tell, so enjoy whatever you want to slather yourself with. [/quote]
Weird that you think I’m “oddly hostile” when this is my first post. You however are an absolute psycho.[/quote]

:roll:

Look, it smells weird and pretty gross to some of us. Not everyone thinks your perfume smells good. You seem very upset to learn that given how you are lashing out. I don't really care. I am just saying there is an unpleasant scent that is in 95% or so of perfumes. Since you don't smell it, why do you care that other people can? Why do you need all of us to pretend we think it smells good?[/quote]

NP. You clearly care. A lot.

You are weird.  [/quote]
