Patty Le Pew
Definitely the "I need to be noticed" desperate type. I went into the nearby work room/ kitchen area and started loudly asking everyone "What is that smell? Do you smell that? That sweet, horribly nauseating smell" Many co-workers immediately offered sympathy and began talking about how people shouldn't wear heavy scents at work because you never know who might be allergic. One even said the same thing I was thinking "A perfume should be used lightly just enough so when someone walks past they pause and thing ... mmm what's that smell?" I grabbed a cup of coffee grounds and began sniffing them at my desk. Aww ... relief. The smell went away, then with the clack of heels it came back! Finally a young woman who works part-time quietly walked away - with the yellow aroma odor following her. 4 comments from 3 users

I just visited the restroom - both stalls were filled, so I patiently waited. I heard a clack clack as one stood up to flush, then the door opened and I was face to face with Patty Le Pew - I wasn't positive, the clack clack matched, but I hadn't seen her face. Then as I took a seat on the toilet I smelt the smell ... lord it lingers. Fortunately it has died down a bit since she doused herself earlier.

Exactly! I don't even use the spray stuff, I wear straight Issey Miyake 'L'Eau d'Issey' Extract Parfum. A little dab on the back of my neck and a tiny dab on each wrist and I'm good to go. True Twinkie ... the lady in the stall next to me was quietly trying to poop, but I didn't notice aside from the subtle plop here and there. posted by

In some places like Sausalito they passed local ordnances banning loud fragrance in public places like city council meetings. Kind of like they do with cigarettes everywhere now.
