On the one hand, much of the anti-perfume stuff is silly, on the other hand, I've been known to get up and change my seat when someone in a theatre is wearing way too much.

I have worn fragrance every day since, oh, I don't know, since I turned 20, maybe, and I'm not going to tell you how long ago *that* was. In the past few months, two of my friends, close friends I've known for 20+ years, have on separate occasions pulled back from me, physically, in aversion. "You're wearing scent!" they shrilled. Well, yeah, so? No one's eyes are streaming, no one is reaching for their lace hankies and sneezing and honking. This is not allergy, this is self-indulgent nonsense. That said, I have smelled some vile perfumes on the subway. The worst are those drug-store knockoffs, "If you like Calvin Klein's Obsession you'll like our Fingers in our Noses..." What *is* that chemical they put in those concoctions? It gives chemicals a bad name and heaven knows chemistry is getting a bad enough rap these days without that.

I would swear to you that on my beach holiday last year, every single woman was wearing Angel or an Angel-clone, and it was hot as Hades. Couldn't understand it when there are so many lovely summery scents! I was just teasing!

The Lutens babies provide comfort and depth during (harsh) winters, not during summer. What if you were at Myrtle Beach basking in the sun with temperatures reaching 90 degrees...would you go with Eau Sauvage or Arabie ? :D LoL no, its just choosing fragrance appropriate based on weather.

We're generally a tolerant people! I guess this is just something we'll have to learn to apologise in advance for, like Celine Dion. I don't know what it is, and I wish I knew.

Must be one of those cloyingly synthetic fruity-floral mess. Other fragrances that should be locked up during intense spring and summer temperatures: 95% of the Serge Lutens line (that uber rich and heavy amber-candied fruit-honey house accord can kill a horse in hot weather), A*Men, Pi, Joop!, etc..
