    God I absolutely HATE the smell of department store men's and women's perfumes and colognes. YUCK. They all smell alike- so chemical laden and cheap-disco smelling. Why do people think they smell good?? I want to gag.

    I like some very sparingly used natural scents, like sandlewood, lemongrass, myrhh, sage, amber, or rosemary, etc. A tiny tiny dab rubbed through my hair on some inspired mornings is very subtle. Like 1/20th of a drop. Mostly I just use sandewood, mint, orange, or almond soap in the shower and that's enough to smell good under my clothes. Scent is a personal thing and it shouldn't be inflicted/thrown at people around you.

    It'd be worse for them if I had to go home sick with a nasty migraine. Work sheet central (boring!), instead of working on our play and creating similes.

    Plus this is California. It was 55 degress out today.

    I smell cigarette smoke coming from a car in front of me at a stop light!
