Katy Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I don't know if it's an essential oil blend or a particularly acrid new perfume, but recently almost everywhere I go in public I usually smell something particularly horrible, especially around some well dressed older women, and sometimes younger well dressed women. It smells a little like rancid patchouli mixed with something floral mixed with vinegar and acetone, and it burns in my nostrils like the time in high school when I stepped into the house of a boy whose parents made meth. If it wasn't so horrible I might track down one of those women and ask them what their perfume is (so I can avoid it), but I honestly don't think I could do it without grimacing. A couple times now it's triggered a migraine, and a couple of times I've wondered if I was pregnant because the scent is so overwhelming. I hate that smell. I just want it to go away. Please someone tell me I'm not the only one. Does anyone know what it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I pretty much vote for NO perfumes. And while we're at it, let's do away with all "air freshener" products, which I nick-name "air stinkifiers." I detest them all. I do not want a room, or a person to smell like...anything. Just clean air. That's pretty much it. I realize I don't have much company in my tiny club. My SIL and I were in a battle at the office. I kept putting the air stinkifier in random places where I would smell it less, but then I would forget. She would come in to the office and get upset because the air stinkifier was outside on the telephone panel, or in the storage room. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 I like jasmine, and don't mind a tiny amount of vetivier in a mixture of essential oils, but they do both have hints of something acrid on their own. It's not as strong as what I'm noting, but googling the black currant thing makes me think many people feel the same way I do about it... Odd that it's found in so many expensive perfumes. And apparently it's also in Champs Elysees, which I love, but I always think it smells awful for the first ten minutes until the alcohol evaporates.

PrincessMommy Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 For some of us it's more than the smell. My daughter has an asthma attack in stores because some people seem to enjoy pouring perfume on them. Recently, my reaction is an immediate sinus headache. Upon smelling the stuff my sinuses seize up and it feels like someone is shoving an icepick up my nose. I vote NO perfumes. (oddly enough, incense doesn't bother me).

Lizzie in Ma Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Do they really need to bathe in it? It's "spray and walk through" people. At church there are two people I adore but they always bathe in their scent and they hug me and I run to the bathroom and try to get it all off while gagging. It's awful! Same thing at the ER, there is always some guy who bathed in Axe, the most dreaded smell of all time to me. Never mind the guy at Dunkin who clearly showered in it and handed me a coffee. The lid, the cup, the bag all stunk to high heaven and I haven't been able to drink Dunkin's coffee since! Boxwood totally smells like cat urine to me.

Katy Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 You guys are reminding me of a scene in Gilmore Girls about getting coated in someone else's nasty perfume. Aunt Totsy apparently liked to pour it on, and getting hugged by her was referred to as "Getting Totsied." This makes me wonder what scents I love that other people detest. For example, I don't exactly love tea tree oil (it's just vaguely unpleasant to me), my grandfather insists it smells exactly like a rotten potato. Once their maid was on vacation or something and I went over to clean for them and used the homemade eco-friendly cleansers I like to make myself, mostly with lavender, orange, and peppermint essential oils and things like vinegar, club soda, and baking soda. But this toilet bowl cleaner I think had borax and tea tree oil, and he hated the scent so much he made me come back and clean his toilet again with chemicals just to get rid of the tea tree scent. This was before I learned the only thing that kills stomach flu viruses is bleach and switched to that for toilets. Are there any smells you like that you know other people hate? One example- I detest the scent of pear blossom. It smells like... I don't even want to say what it smells like. A body fluid produced only by men.

Melissa in New York Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Are there any smells you like that you know other people hate? It's really hard for me to be around people who wash their clothes in Tide (or the equivalent) and fabric softeners. I get almost an instant migraine. The detergent never fully washes out of the clothes and over time just layers up. When I travel by plane and train, I pray that no one with perfumes and strong scents sits anywhere nearby. I'm guaranteed to have a pounding headache followed by nausea. My husband hasn't worn cologne for years and can't even wear most antiperspirants because the smell is too strong and the scent lasts forever in the shirts. :( ~Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my goodness - you have just solved the mystery of why I keep smelling cat pee where there is no cat pee! My girls love shopping at Lush, so I'll bet this is one of the things they own and use. And someone in our church choir absolutely bathes in something that smells [to me] like Haven't-Washed-in-a-Month. I don't know what it is, and I am one of two people who thinks it smells like that. The rest of the choir says it smells like musky flowers. Whatever. She needs to stop it with the perfume, pronto! I can't sing when I'm choking.

I've never had a problem with any perfume. Well, there was that one that was being heavily promoted when I was a teen, and mom and I walked into Neiman's through their perfume room which was Drenched in that perfume. I think I overdosed on it in that 10 minutes, and I always had a reaction to it after that. But, incense is ghastly. All forms. I guess it smells different to most people. I have a vivid memory of sitting on folding chairs in front of the front row at the Christmas Eve service and Dad and I were turning green. The kid that was swinging the incense around was really into it, and hadn't noticed. The priest noticed and shooed him to another area.

Lisbeth Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 We smell like that because I make "Jeddy's Blend" essential oil combo, and rub it onto the feet of my adhd family members. It is a long shot, but I've tried some other things, like Bach flower remedies and essential oils after being desperate, and they WORKED (to my shock, because I have not been pro alternative remedies.) One thing that worked amazingly well was Bach Rescue Remedy *cream* (not the drops) for eczema. As in we went to various specialists for 3 years and tried all of their fixes and prescriptions, to no avail. One week on the Rescue Remedy cream and - bam! Eczema all gone. And it has stayed gone. Then I had a health food store supplement work for my horrible GERD, when nothing the doctor prescribed worked at all (what he did actually made it worse). This stuff worked for me in ONE day. So Jeddy's blend is another thing recommended by my "natural remedy" friend, and since other things have worked from her, we are trying it. It combines these essential oils: lavender, patchouli, "Balance" blend (doTerra), "Serenity" blend (doTerra) and vetiver in fractionalized carrier coconut oil. I use it too. But when we do, we smell like a hippy head shop. Yep, I feel kind of bad about it. But I like the smell...lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they bloom, she remarks about how those trees stink. I feel this way about Stargazer Lilies. I'm sorry; to me, they just stink. When I was finally experienced enough to... ...make the connection, it took me almost two weeks to figure out why that scent was so familiar. I was pretty sure I hadn't been abused as a child, but could not understand how or why I knew that scent before. Luckily a few weeks later a bradford pear went into bloom and I figured it out. I HATE the scent of lilies too. I vaguely liked the stinging sweet scent until I was in nursing school and one of the older nurses mentioned that hospice patients dying of cancer smelled like lillies. A few days later I was assigned to a patient like that and sure enough, she was right. Now lilies smell like death to me. I don't know if it's deep ketosis or what, but about a day after someone goes fully unconscious until they pass, they all have that scent. Most perfumes and incense are out for me.

ocelotmom Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I'm another who gets headaches from strong scents, both perfume and incense. There are a few I like because of positive associations that outweigh the headache. But overall I wish they'd go away. Thankfully, most deodorants and soaps aren't strong enough to be an issue for me. I hate bringing my babies home and having them smell like the women that held them at church.
