I’d like to dismiss the old ladies that pour on the chemically-laden cologne (because their sense of smell has diminished and they don’t know when to stop) and come and plop next to me at mass. I’ve had to sit in the vestibule a couple of times to escape the scent. I asked the priest if they could make a scent-free pew. I think he thought I was joking.:)

I have seen churches deal with this problem by putting notices in the program handouts asking members, men and women, to refrain from wearing cologne, perfume, aftershave, etc to church..............

I used to work near such a person, she wasn't old either. She must have bathed in the stuff.

I can put up with nearly any amount of natural odors, but chemical perfumes make my eyes bleed. I'll take the train... and I won't be found in coach... I'd rather be in a livestock car...

I was thinking the same thing. Can we ban the people who insist on marinating in cologne so much that you can see the blue scent cloud around them?
