i sometimes pile the straight perfume on but that is because fragrance disappears into my skin due to how oily and mediterranean i am. i also won't spray it on my clothes because it gets more sillage that way.
and you know very well i refuse to use fabric softener or any laundry detergent i don't make myself ;) even when i did use detergent i bought, i thought the smell of Tide was gross and i usually bought the Arm & Hammer stuff with "no dye" (just color cancellers so it would be clear and not snot-yellow like the stuff really is) and no fragrance. i sometimes look at the amount of suds in some people's clothes in the laundromat and wonder how in the world they can take having those fabrics on their skin. i want to tell these people that if they actually rinsed their clothes *clean* they wouldn't NEED fabric softener.
finally, Bath and Body Works? wouldn't touch 'em with a ten foot pole and i certainly don't get the appeal. none of it smells good to me.
it's a pity - i think my own BO smells pretty bad, but i'm fairly tolerant of the BO of others.... oh, except for cigarette breath. eurgh, nasty!
