Jenny, I can't seem to like or respond directly to your comments. That's such an interesting point. While my sister and I share a strong resemblance, we each look like a different side of the family; I'm guessing those genetics come into play. It was also interesting since the perfume smelled even worse on me back in NYC! I'm guessing the food and water supply also affected the way it smelled on each of us.
I used to take the subway to work daily (3 trains each way) and became queasy at all the competing smells. I've not read it, but thank you for the rec!

I am extremely sensitive to scent, so understated for the win. Have you ever read, The Secret of Scent, by Luca Turin? I think you would enjoy it.

Enjoyed this! (ah yes that perfume!)
Ahhh. Remember how stinky that scent was on me? 🦨
How interesting that it smelled so different on you & your sister, despite your common genetics & close connection!
