Someone smells like they've bathed themselves in aftershave today and it stinks, I don't know how they walk around without knowing how bad and strong it smells.
I feel like my senses are being assaulted, let the day end quickly!
I once used lynx africa on a tram and still feel guilty.
I was once in a lift with someone wearing lynx and am still scarred
Better than smelling like BO!
so you should
The ones I haaaate are the girls who get on a crowded tram and proceed to spray themselves with perfume. A known hazard of Friday pm public transport. Or anytime on trams that pass a secondary school.
has flashbacks to Impulse in the post-PE girls’ changing rooms
walking past or through a department store makes me heady
Remember when they used to spray everyone going through Myer?
so many stinky people out there
the way to do perfume
spray 3 short spritzes in the air and walk thru the cloud
after shave, put a few sprinkles on your hands and dab gently on all the shaved areas of your face. It's an antiseptic.
Swarms of teenage boys on a bus are one of my worst smell issues
depends. have they showered in the last few hours?
I think people smell other people stronger than they smell themselves.
Someone else noticed it too so it isn’t just me.
I also wear odourless roll ons so it’s not me.
I find the unscented or ‘sensitive’ antiperspirants aren’t as effective which is unfortunate. Really hate that they changed the Mitchum roll on.
I currently use it anyway because the other unscented options aren’t good and it’s better than accidental perfume cloud
I went with the Nivea women's sensitive roll on, It seems to be working so far the last 2 months I've been using it but it'll probably get a workout during summer.
I do find that it doesn't irritate me though which is good.
I don’t seem to get much mileage out of women’s stuff. I go for men’s roll ons and either unscented or something that doesn’t really carry
Oh ok, I used to use the Dove anti irritant one but I didn't like the smell because is smelled like smoke, didnt like it and it was strong.
Same deal here. Friend recommended the Mitchum one but then they changed it.
I think they changed it in 2014, still mad about it
For sure.
