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.

People who object to strong scents are not necessarily objecting because they hate the smell.  It can cause an asthmatic reaction in some people — so essentially, a deadly reaction.  Strong scents (even ones I like) cause me to cough uncontrollably, to the point of throwing up, and rescue inhalers don’t always help. Certain scents are worse than others (I’m sure it has to do with the chemical make-up of it).  The difference between a food allergy and a scent allergy is that scents are everywhere and you can’t really control them, whereas food is more easily controlled because they are  most often effected (but not always) by ingestion.[/quote]
