Grossed out by perfume... anyone else?

If I hug you and you smell good (particularly if you smell like cookies), then that’s awesome.

I guess until you hug me, we’ll never know.

Seriously, though — people stop in the doorway to my office to sniff.

I once told my then boss that she smelled like a Lebanese whorehouse. She got the message and I ended up looking for another job.

I was shopping at Safeway yesterday, and one of the workers there was a very nicely-coiffed, nice-looking lady of middle-aged years, and I could smell her perfume from halfway down the aisle. Sigh. I was tempted to mention to her, politely, that I could smell her perfume 30 feet away.

So what exactly does a Lebanese whorehouse smell like?

I wish more people WOULD make this kind of comment. I truly believe these people are oblivious.
