Subject: RE: NonMusic: Anyone with me on this?
Yes, and I didn't mean to be insensitive to people's sensitivities, but to talk as though anyone who wears anything besides the smell Gawd gave 'em is committing a crime against nature just seems a bit extreme to me.

And, frankly, some of those aroma-therapy or "natural" scents mentioned above seem much worse than my little sploosh of Clinique or Crabtree & Evelyn. Vanilla and sandalwood both make me want to leave the room.

When I was in high school chorus, every girl around me seemed to bathe in Tabu or Shalimar (yick) and, admittedly, there were a couple of times, standing in concert under hot stage lights, that I thought I might barf or pass out. So I do understand the effect gallons of scent can have. However, it seems to me there's a distinction between that and a light bit of cologne.

I find certain men's colognes or aftershaves absolutely irresistible. I don't even know what it is, but there's one I've smelled, LIGHTLY, on a couple of different men and it makes me want to follow them home. I ought to, some day, ask what it is, but I'm afraid they'd take it the wrong way.
