I always joke with my girls (they're grown up) that Abercrombie smells like man sweat. It really does smell like a locker room.

I know it wasn't my place to say anything, but believe me it was very strong perfume!

I am sure I would sneeze, am very sensitive to strong odors.

This is a bit like having someone come up to you with garlic breath, which happened to me, so I just backed up enough so that I could bare it.

That store is unbearable, I could hardly breathe due to all of the scents, so never took DD back there.

I would have a hard time telling anyone that. If it is a work situation, I might talk to a superior in charge of that employee's duties.
My husband used to commute on a private bus to his job 50 miles away. There was a lady who doused herself in a perfume many found offensive. In fact one gentleman quit riding the bus, or was attempting to quit because of her perfume. My husband said his eyes watered, and he got stuffed up. I guess the bus driver sent a note home with her, that all people wearing perfume, shaving lotion, etc had to either quit wearing it, or make it barely noticeable because he had several people with allergies riding the bus.
It worked I guess. Sad one has to do that because it puts people in embarrassing positions.

Hey Shoekitty! Yeah, it gets in your mouth too then you're tasting it. I get that a lot in the grocery store because I shop when a lot of older (than me) ladies shop and so often they are wearing a ton of heavy perfume.
Jordan - Well, I guess I spoke too soon. Still a pretty civil conversation over all but I guess you, and the rest of us, have now been schooled. It's not that some people wear a ton of heavy perfume. It's not that it makes people cough, sneeze, and wheeze. It's US. We are the ones who are imagining the whole thing. I guess it's like the people here who think it's ok to be rude and spoil tv shows in non-spoiler threads - we should all just hide in the closet and, well, just stay there. HA!
