Perfume Accountability

Ok ladies...i'm only going to say this once.

If you put on so much perfume that by the time you get to your desired destination [party, office, church, etc.] it has the potency to fill an entire room w/ it's fragrance, then it is a BAD thing.  Honestly, how bad could you smell anyway?  If I'm standing more than 5ft away from you then I don't really wanna smell your gramma's old nappy perfume.  Seriously when it's too much, it's enough to gag a yak...and that's a LOT!

I understand that when you first come out of your room or bathroom after having applied said perfume it is going to be a little strong, but for the love of all the nice pure air that exists out there TAKE IT EASY!!! sheesh.  Oh and how do you know if you have gramma perfume that's likely to choke everyone around you?  Here's some good questions to help you out:

1. Are you, in fact, a grandmother?  If so, you probably have grandmother perfume.
2. Are you a grandmother and are you also wearing the same kind of perfume that you were when you were only a mother?  If so, you definitely have granny perfume.
3. Do you notice young people holding their breath and coughing whenever you come around?  If so, you probably have granny perfume.
4. Has anyone in your presence ever said..."What's that smell....er...nevermind."  That's a typical oh.snap.I.smell.granny.perfume. response.

Of course if you like granny perfume, it's coooooool.  You can wear whatever you like, but again the biggest problem is HOW MUCH of it do you put on.  

Please use perfume responsibly.  In the process of doing something nice for a loved one or family by putting on a few drops of perfume you could easily ruin everyone else's day.
