Why are people so compelled to smell "fragrant"? Synthetic scents aren't necessary. Folks are so afraid to be natural that they douse themselves and the environment in nasty chemicals. Plenty of folks with asthma, allergies, migraines, or MCS know that fragrant doesn't mean nice, after all poop is pretty fragrant, but I generally avoid smearing that all over my pulse points.

Aye, you're pretty conscientous about it. I'm talking about folks who douse themselves in a whole bath line (from body gel through all the shower stuff to moisturizer and hair products) or those folks who think suave and dove smell "good".

Suave is what gets bought when I very suddenly run out of a necessary product, because at least some of their scents are tolerable. I now have 5 different shampoos and 4 different conditioners, plus 3 soaps /just in the shower/, so I don't think I'll have to make an emergency bath product run any time this year.

I'd love to be able to buy something off the shelf. As it is, if I *do* neglect to reorder shampoo when the jug gets close to empty (the pump I use in the shower holds about a month's worth of shampoo), there's generally a few ounces in a bottle in boy's gym bag and another in our travel bag.
