I smell like a Christmas pudding
The issue is that what is offensive to one may not be to another. Very little offends me and I have certainly never been offended by a scent, I simply like some and dislike others. I do not want a cologne that fades to a 'skin scent' in an hour and I like bold scents of the type that were prevalent in the 1970s and 1980s. I understand that fashions change and that gentle unisex fragrances seem to be in vogue right now but I do not care for them. When I started office work in the 1980s people wore what they wanted and nobody was offended by scents or by much else. Maybe the scents I like and the amount I apply are no longer appropriate and some may choose to be offended, but that is their choice and I don't really care. After all, we wear scents for ourselves and not for others, at least that is what I keep reading. In any case I work at home these days, probably a good thing for all concerned. Now, get off my lawnScents should be subtle and gentle and not offensive. But I think you should ask a young person whether they notice the smell or not and stick to that amount.
