Why is it that older ladies wear perfume that smells like formaldehyde and cheap vodka?

You should train her to start smoking. She won't be smelling your ass projections once she's killed her sense of smell.

FYI, I liked your post.

smelling faintly of warm cookies works for me

drool worthy. Yes there are ladies who know how to choose the right scents. OP's example is not one of them.

Funny story: Had a female IT worker who could not smell at all. Her dog got creamed by a skunk and slept in her bed. She had no idea and came to work the next day. A worker came flyin into my office first thin in the morning and said that the IT lady smelled like ass. I had to ask the poor lady to please go home and don't come back until you have the smell gone. I felt really bad for her in between bouts of nausea.

At one work location several years back it was widely a noted condition in which some females would show up haven taken a dunk into a 55 gallon drum of perfume instead of just taking a shower that morning. Riding the elevator would marinate you for the week on that short elevator ride.

LOL, I am old but I only use good oils from indie brands that younger women rave about. I favor foodie scents, smelling faintly of warm cookies works for me

Never underestimate the aroma of boiled cabbage. Drives the eastern European men wild.

I was just thinking about this the other day. One of the VPs in my company has his disgusting perfume she wears every day. When I went to the gym this morning, there was another lady I walked by that slathered some nasty stuff that I had to run away from.

In the gym, that's by far the worst. Lucky for me I've had good weather, but I hit the treadmill at my gym when I need to log training miles and it never fails these guys and gals walk in covered in whatever cheap crap they buy. I don't wear cologne often and certainly don't use it to mask BO. I shower often and use good antiperspirant if I expect to be really sweating hard before a workout.

We've got an older guy (I'd guess ~60) here that smokes, and has this same problem with his aftershave/cologne. I dread any time I need to be in his office, especially if it's one where the door gets closed.
