What's NOT your perfume? (inspired by what's your perfume)

[delilah]

There was one scent from Bath and Bodyworks that one of my nurses just loved. On me, it most reminded me of wet dog and urine. It just gagged me. So I gave my bottle to my nurse, which made her happy.

I never wore "Poison", but one time, I spent 40 minutes suturing a woman who bathed in it before slicing her arm open while washing dishes on Thanksgiving. I just couldn't get the smell out of my nose, and it was on my hair and clothes. I have had an aversion to it ever since.

I don't care for any strong scent, like "Red" or "Red-door".

Happy just stinks on me

I would have to say Poison. I used to work with someone who took a daily bath in it.

Happy just stinks on me

I agree! I realize Happy is very popular but I do NOT like it on me or others!!

Obsession by Calvin Kline. The smell of it makes me want to I actually used to like it, but became pregnant with DD, during the time period I was wearing the perfume. I had really bad morning sickness with DD. Now whenever, I smell the scent, I instinctively remember that time period and the nausea. I've never gone back to wearing it.

Anything vanilla. It gives me a massive headache and I don't think vanilla scents smell nice at all. Why would I want to smell like something I want to eat?

I don't wear any perfume. Any of it gives me a headache, and DH literally has no sense of smell so it would be lost on him anyway.

I've actually had to get up and change seats in church if I sit near someone who is wearing too much perfume.

I can hardly wear any scents, because they turn too sweet on me. My worsts: a tie between Beautiful and White Linen. Lovely on other people, but smells sickly sweet on me. I wear Chance by Chanel. I also love Light Blue by DKNY, but it doesn't smell that good on me.

I know it's a classic, but- Chanel No 5 smells like rancid baby powder to me.
Estee Lauder perfumes give me a headache.
