We all like being clean & fresh. Does anyone else find perfumes used by many too strong & hard to breathe in?

I agree. There are some really horrible perfumes about and I am allergic to them, but that aside, I just can't understand how people can possibly like the overpowering awful smell! Bet this answer gets loads of TD's, and that we are probably in the minority. My father (long deceased) reckoned people who used perfume were too lazy to wash!
