I kinda hijacked this thought from another thread.

Does anyone out there (besides me) recognize a few colognes/perfumes that SMELL HORRIBLE and often mess with your nasal passages, to the point that you actually get SICK and come-down with cold-like symptoms?

To me, some "Clinique" perfumes are incredibly offensive. "Fendi" is another nasty one. "Obsession" (for butch chicks) is another equally foul smelling substance.

I can spend all day around cleaning chemicals, solvents, paints and "nasty" stuff in general, and be fine...Some perfumes just kill me =(

Stetson makes me sick like that.  My roommate (female) sprayed some on me in a Wal-Mart one time.  Before long, I felt like I had the flu.

I'm allergic to a lot of perfumes.  It is like instant migraine, within 2-3 seconds.  Amazing how fast it hits.  I hate perfume.  Just be clean and I'm happy.

Obsession makes me want to puke. The hottest chick in the world could be wearing it, and I wouldn't go near her if I had a choice.

Ever stick your finger in your bellybutton then smell your finger???

ugh.

BTW My brother had that problem when he smelled this one particular brand of perfume it was instant migraine, Well his secretary wore that brand and he asked her many times to stop wearing it... made him sick. She wanted to be defiant ... even though he asked nicely like 4 or 5 times to PLEEEEEEASE change to a different brand.

She was transferred to a different dept. Boy is she unhappy now.

The worst smell is actually the complete lack of personal hygiene..... Example - here in Germany. Chicks don't shave anywhere and deodorant is taboo... I went to France last weekend and some of those French @%*%#% are worse.........sorry about my perpetual dislike of the French - its necessary though.....I live near Canada in the States so we are "supposed" automatically dislike French people - not to mention that in Paris over half of the "guys" look like drag queens....to put it nicely.....I'd say more but wish to avoid being sued by the Paris chapter of NAMBLA

Some perfumes give me a headache.  Obsession isn’t one of them.  Obsession and Ambush are two of the very few perfumes I like.

Allergy to Perfume in the Air and similar illness due to perfume in the air we breathe:

STETSON!!!! Thats the other one that I hate...It most closely resembles the smell of alligator piss. Its a really vile musk smell.

I know this because I had an alligator once...Cayman, whatever.

what I don't get are the guys who get the colognes that smell slightly skunky. 'Musk' or what ever the sent is called. why would someone what to smell skunky?
