Do you use perfume or cologne?

[Anonymous]

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

I can't use perfume or cologne for that matter. I'm allergic to most fragrances like those, fabreeze, scented candles, etc.

I do use unscented deodorant because I'm not trying to go out smelly or anything lmao

[Asker]

Wait so it's the smell you are allergic to? Not the chemicals? Now that is just odd ha

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

It could be the chemicals, but it's fragrances that close up my throat and make it really hard to breathe until I get away from it.

[Asker]

I'm not trying to make you sound like a loony tune but do you think it can be in your mind? Cause the mind can be powerful, I always thought smells weren't effective in that way but I guess it is, now I'm thinking if bad smells effect us in any way 😂

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Lol in my mind? The thing is I don't have a sense of smell as it is, so I never know when it's coming. I don't think that it is psychosomatic. It's not like I can smell a particular smell and trigger a bad response. It just happens when I'm near something scented even if I can't see it and as I said, no sense of smell, so I definitely can't smell it coming either.

[Asker]

So you get reactions before you smell it? So if people use these fragrances you are basically allergic to people? 🥴

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Lol more allergic to the fragrances, but I've had to move away from people who wear a lot of scents. Usually, I have someone with me when I'm out, and they can direct me away from the source since they can smell.

I know, it's weird, right?

[Asker]

That is weird, instead of a spotter dog you got a smeller human, but you can't smell anything? At all? 🙃

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Lol basically. They are my smelling nose person.

But no, I can't smell anything at all. It's a curse and a blessing at the same time lol

[Asker]

So you can't even smell good foods? Thats definitely a curse, there's more good smells than bad and you can't smell any of them 😦

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Nope, can't smell good foods which is weird cause I'm not a bad cook or anything. I just have to use sights and intuition when I cook.

On the plus side I can't smell bad scents either so changing diapers when my kids were babies was no big deal lol

[Asker]

Sometimes visuals are worse than the smell and I think the diaper changing is one of those, so does this mean you don't know what things smell like? Or did you smell and you lost it 🙃

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

As far as I know, I've never had it

[Asker]

So you dont know what garlic smells like? That is wild

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Sure don't. Why? Is it a good smell or a bad one?

[Asker]

It's hard to describe, it's good as food smell but bad if you were to smell it in someone's breath or as not food

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

That's weird. You know it draws a comparison to trying to describe colors to someone who has been blind their whole life. Lol

[Asker]

What is the word for having no sense of smell? So your whole life you've never gotten a wiff of anything at all? Even if you don't know what you were smelling, just randomly a different smell that isn't nothing

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Apparently, it's called anosmia. And I can't vouch for when I was a baby or toddler, but I have no recollection of ever being able to smell anything.

I also have something called aphantasia, which means I can't picture images in my head.

I'm just broken in all kinds of interesting ways lmao

[Asker]

I have aphantasia, I didn't know about that until pretty recent, I thought everyone thought like me and that's know what I'm thinking of but not actually see it in mind, I thought picturing something was just a saying but people legit meant picture it 😂

You are indeed quite a difference to a huge population, I'm not trying to be a ass but you are missing out on smelling pizza lol

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Lol so I've been told. That and BBQ (considering in from Texas and it's popular there)

[Asker]

But how can you possibly care if you don't smell anything 😂

[PrettyCrumblBb]

@Ez-Bri-Z_v2 does this mean you can't taste either?

[PrettyCrumblBb]

@ChicoFromThe305 I googled aphantasia... so apparently you can't see images in your mind... but don't you dream?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

I can taste for the most part though I'm not sure if my taste of something is what others experience. For example, watermelon tastes very acidic to me and I hate the taste of it. Not a fan of BBQ food either. I can taste stronger tasting foods, like when I get a burger from this place up here I always get ghost pepper cheese so I can taste it.

[Asker]

I do dream, it's only when it comes to imaginationm

[Account]

Yeah sure I wear Alien

[Asker]

They went tryhard with the bottle ngl, that looks like it smells fire tho

[Account]

Hahaha! They definitely did 🤣
It is a little intense, but I like how it smells on me! Been wearing that for a long time

[Asker]

I can tell it's some good stuff cause it says eu de perfum, not eu de toilet which im not French but if I recall properly it's basically called toilet water when it's not that strong, good stuff indeed 😂👍🏽

[jamesgoldman]

Absolutely I've got Bleu de Chanel at the moment as my main, Floris 88 as my travel size and a tester of the new Creed release

[Asker]

Sounds fancy lol

[jamesgoldman]

Retail for full sized bottles of each is something like £500
I paid £80 for the Chanel, £1 for the Floris and the tester was free

[HawkPerception]

I don't generally wear anything, but if I did, it would be something like a cedarwood scent

[Asker]

Good choice, I think lol

[Nikki1989]

Yes, Black Opium.

[Asker]

Sounds pretty fire

[exitseven]

No, I take a shower e very day.

[Asker]

That doesn't mean anything 😂

[LaurenM1997]

Perfume I use coco channel Madame Moselle

[Asker]

So it smells like coconuts? Lol

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Yes, I'm wearing My Way by Giorgio Armani.

[Asker]

Dat boi Giorgio has been busy

[PrettyCrumblBb]

What?

[Asker]

The person that made the perfume lol, that person has been busy lol

[PrettyCrumblBb]

I'm confused. Is this a saying? I just buy the perfumes I don't know about the culture of it or anything 😅

[Asker]

I don't even know what perfume that is I'm just being weird like always lol

[PrettyCrumblBb]

[Asker]

[Asker]

I never understood why women's perfumes were so small, it never made sense to me so I got my mom a normal sided perfume for her birthday, til this day she still has it, I like to believe cause it's not small 😂

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Mini perfumes are so adorable. I carry the mini version in my purse. Yeah big perfumes last a long time but you can't carry them with you. 😊 I tell myself I don't need to carry a small version because it's an eau de perfume and it'll last all day but it's just too adorable.

[Asker]

Yea normally they last a long time if they aren't the toilet water ones lol

I guess it's a bit more excusable for em to have small ones but sometimes the prices are over the top for the amount ha

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Yeah it's true. But they are so tiny and cute 🥺

[Asker]

It seems to be a working strategy to make them small, I guess many chicks like the cuteness of tiny bottles that they don't seem to care that they are getting ripped off when it comes to quantity 😂

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Well I got mine for free from Sephora it was a birthday gift.

[Asker]

That's fine, I was just trying to be annoying lol

[Miah04]

Yes.

[Phoenix98]

Cologne.

[Ladsin2]

Neither
