    I agree to a point.

    There are people who use much lighter scents and don’t bathe in it. That can be pleasant.

    Anyone using stupidly strong scents or just absolutely overdoing it should be charged with sensory assault or something. Also, people who don’t outgrow the high school mentality of bathing in perfume or cologne to hide BO instead of just taking a shower.

      Until everyone does it and you again get assaulted by 50 different vanilla or citrus scents making the bus smell like a soap bar.

      I do a single spritz of cologne on the chest before I put on clothes. That way I can smell it, and anyone that gets very close can smell it too, but i dont think I stink up an elevator.

        Yeah, I also try not to go overboard with it. I try not to use too much and prefer cleaner, less overpowering scents.

        I’m not trying to warn people of my presence when I’m a room away. It’s meant to be a pleasant background scent in my immediate bubble.
