    Bathing in cologne/perfume is the issue, body odor or not.

    To be fair, if you start regularly showering and keep up with the same amount of cologne, the cologne will become the problem. As it is, the cologne is a problem, along with at least one or two other more serious problems.

        Or gone to smash tournaments. Luckily the weekly I run doesn’t have a lot of stinkers but there have been a few over the years.

    I read a long time ago to do 1 spritz of cologne to the middle of the chest (for guys), ideally right after showering. I think the body heat and it usually being covered up by clothing helps with the overall scent. Can’t remember the details.

    Also, mom told me when I was a teen, “The only person who should be able to smell your cologne is the person hugging you.” That’s always been my guide.

      When I was younger I was told, “your cologne should be discovered, not announced.”

    If I have to travel by public transportation and I need to decide between someone who thinks they’re using perfumes moderately or a homeless drunk with shit in their pants - it’s always the drunk. Sure shit, piss, sweat, human-grease and old substances are nasty and unpleasant smells. But those don’t cause migraine and asthma for me.

      Ugh. I’ve had a teacher who wore so much perfume, it made my eyes and nose itch. But I’ve also experienced homeless people who made an entire bus unusable. It’s just both too much.

    Most high end fragrances also sell scented deodorants

    Bathing and using the deodorant is the best option. You won’t overdo the scent

    Bad BO makes me wretch.

    Cologne and Perfume gives me a headache and clogs up my sinuses.

    With those powers combined…

    I’m physically ill from someones olfactory assault.

    If I can smell a person at all from more than 3 feet away. I instantly have a negative opinion of them.

    i use aluminum deodorant mostly to prevent sweat, not to smell a certain way. i know there’s some you can get at pharmacies that might not smell, but i just get the “best” regular deodorant that stores have.
