I can't stand perfume, it makes my skin crawl. Literally when someone is dowsed in the stuff, you can feel the wave of exploding microparticles in mini chemical reactions as they walk passed you. In my "unpopular opinion" perfumes should be banned.

Scent sensitivity is a real, and ADA protected, disability. Why do I have to have an asthma attack or a migraine because someone has to express themselves through chemical warfare? Perfumes are as bad for people's health as second hand smoke, and one in twenty or so people everywhere feel just like I do.

Same with flowers, I guess. And don't get me started on other humans!
