Oh yes! How could I have forgotten those people? I have a "3
spritzes
and no more" rule for perfume application because of that. There is
such
a thing as too much of a good thing. I'll never forget the elderly
women
who bathed in lavender and sat in front of me in church. I hated
going to
church and they were one of the reasons. It made me sick.

Take care,
Carmen

extreme BO from being aware of how they smell.


It happens. I rented a room in a house, for a time, that in the space
of time I was living there, was overtaken by mold, rot and a veritable
menagerie of unhousebroken dogs and cats.

My ability to smell *anything*, even years and years afterward, is
greatly diminished.
