certain shower gels. That aqua smell in particular. Some mens deoderants.

I get a headache from certain scents as well. Lilies, some perfumes. some cleaning sprays, chlorine. Some days my cleaning lady wears perfume and I can't be in the same room.

PERFUME. Gosh, why anyone wants to wear such heavy artificial odors is beyond me. I’m gonna have to start a spin-off...
Can’t stand cigarette and gasoline.
When I worked in office with non Jewish ladies and they reheated their food.
Cumin! Omg! I call it the Israeli shvitz spice!

Another one for cigarette smoke. I can't deal with it. And I know if someone's a smoker when they pass me by. I smell it on people. Ewww

Amother Denim, are you saying you don't like the smell of coffee? For me, that's the best office smell!
And Rappel- chocolate is a smell that's great everywhere.


But coffee breath is unpleasant. Just like fresh garlic smells yum but garlic breath not so much.

I can’t abide the smell of weed, and it’s everywhere. Not in the office, TG.

Eggs. Someone brings it for breakfast and heats in up in the microwave. I put on scented lotion when that happens.
Body odor. Blech.

Yes, a perfume wearing cumin eater is definitely bad news.

Any strong odor except coffee (unless it's on someone's breathe), sweat, cigarettes, perfumes, laundry detergent (my cheap ones barely smell) fish, chicken soup (sometimes), corn chips (smell like sweaty feet), onions, some odor maybe parmesan cheese that swept through the kitchen when my non-Jewish coworkers microwaved their tv-dinners (smelled like vomit). Mold is not so bad, only when it's really strong, balsamic, wine and apple cider vinegar smell ...never really had a problem until my first pregnancy and then it sort of stayed with me.

I have no idea how to describe the smell but the public school I work in. Until now it was bearable but now I'm in my first trimester and it's really hard to breathe at work Sad
