Your fragrance needs to stay your fragrance
Last night, after a nice workout, I stopped by Kroger to purchase some laundry detergent and a frozen pizza (the dinner of champions my friend). After a pleasant enough transaction with a young cashier, she handed me my receipt and my bag, and I was on my merry way. I got home, and put the pizza in the oven, and opened a beer (cause really, beer and pizza goes together like peanut butter and jelly, crack and whores, and Howie and Happening Superstars. As I take my first, tasty sip of my Miller Lite, thats when I smell it.
It wasn't so much that it smelled bad. It was the fact that my hand, my arm, and now my beer actually smelled like it. What was it you may ask? Why the very scent that I first whiffed at my friendlyneighborhood Kroger. It was all over me. After a few minutes scrubbing in my kitchen sink, i finally got it off of my person, but the beer was a lost cause.
Perfume should be subtle. If you're at a normal conversation distance from someone, you should be able to slightly whiff a person's chosen scent. In a more intimate setting, it will obviously be stronger. If you can actually smell someone before you see them, then you're wearing too much damn cologne or perfume.
I fully respect your desire to smell like a $0.50 hooker. I really do. The fourteen squirts of your $1.22 perfume certainly are doing the job. But please, have some consideration for those around you. While you may enjoy smelling this way, I certainly don't.
