So the "wonderful baby smell" is actually the baby powder?  Aha.

I love the scent of patchouli on men but I wouldnt recomend it to any 
guy who wants to attract anyone since hardly anyone else seems to like 
it. That is why I dont wear it anymore. I always think it is funny that 
while most perfumes that a lot of people like either give me a headache 
or just gross me out, I like the scent that is probably most hated of 
all perfumes and colognes. hahaha.

I have some Obsession, but I don't use it because once you start, the 
smell just gets into everything. I like the scent, but not 24/7.

So why do you want other people to smell your favorite scents when they are
near you?

Ok - it's like this.  I am incredibly scent oriented - I sometimes I have more
of a scent memory than other things.  If someone wears a perfume, it just
melds in with that memory.  My mom and Diva.  My grandfather and Aramis.  Gary
and Fahrenheit.  So people wearing perfume don't annoy me or make me sick -
they just add to the memory.  

And Sindi, you can believe this or not - I get complimented a lot on the
scents I wear, so it can't be all that bad.

I forgot to mention, I also like the scents of gardenias, lilacs, and 
most fruity perfumes, so long as they are not too strong.  

So many people put on too much that it nearly gags me when I get to 
within five feet of them.   The reason being that, when you apply just 
enough to wrists and neck, you can't smell it.  Best bet is to apply 
perfume to the ankles and the insides of the knees.  That way you 
still get the effect of the perfume without putting on too much.
In the case of those perfume sprays, spritz a little into the air and 
walk through it.  That'll get you just enough without having to bathe 
in it.

I was wlaking across WCC campus yesterday morning.  A woman crossed my path
about 25-30 feet in front of me.  I almost gagged on her perfume.  I waited
a few minutes before entering the building after her.  That strong, from that
far away, outside I don't want to be anywhere near in an enclosed space.

        I usually wear Gautier's Homme, but occasionally Obsession.

        Everyone, including my dirty hippie friends, seems to love it.

        It may have something to do with body chemistry.  I can't wear musks,
but that may have to do with the fact that my nose percieves a lot of musks
as a vaguely stinky body odor aroma.
