With bonus links to my latest round of scent reviews in the comments.

This post is a free-for-all for people to:

a) post links to perfume-related content they posted elsewhere (on or off DW)
b) talk about anything they want to talk about that isn't big enough for a full post
c) socialize and hang out without worrying about "off topic"
d) or anything else that comes to mind!

I broke my foot on Wednesday, and am on crutches. The person who had the crutches before I did wore either perfume or spray-on underarm deodorant. Something in the 'Oriental' category of scents, I think, nothing I recognise. I am... not best pleased with that person. I don't like the smell, and I don't like having it close to me all the time.

The funny part was when I realised it was the crutches. I was like "Okay, I spent an hour and a half in the emergency department, so I would expect perfume and cigarette smoke on my clothes from close proximity to other patients. But this isn't that, this is something else, something fresher and in physical proximity. It's like it's on my shoulder, or under my arm... Oh."

I bought a used car that exuded a saccharine fruity floral whenever sunlight hit the steering wheel, from the previous owner's Victoria's Secret hand lotion being worked into the pleather. Crutches bring it to a new level, though.

Oh noes for broken foot and perfume saturated crutches. :(

I wonder if a strenous scrubbing with some rubbing alcohol might divest the crutches of some of the scent.
