Perfume/cologne

[Susie Hamilton]

I have found only a few perfumes that I can wear that mix with my body chemistry. I can wear musk, lady stetson and white diamonds. I can smell some and love the smell, but when I spray them on me, it smells completely different. Does anyone else have this problem?

I can only wear "Eternity for Men." All the others I have tried seem to smell kind of sour (for lack of a better word) on me. I also have to switch brands of other products like deodorants fairly regularly, as they seem to not be as effective over time.

Body chemistry? I'm not sure.

This is not unusual, perfumes/colognes will slightly change their scents from one person to another for a combination of reasons. We all have our individual body scent, then add on the scents used in bath soaps, laundry detergent, fabric softeners, air fresheners, etc. and these will change the scent of the perfume or cologne you put on. I learned this when I was being tested to find out what triggers my asthma. You can line up 10 people and spray then with the same scent and you will end up with 10 slightly different scents. By the way I can not wear any fragrance and I avoid elevators because of the mixture of scents.
