For example, one morning I was on my way to class on the upstairs Maples side if the school, minding my own business when all of the sudden I could taste, not smell but taste men's axe cologne. As I kept walking down the hallways I continued to smell/taste this awful and over powering spray. It was beyond unbearable. I literally had to run to class with my face covered by my sweater.
Perhaps the abusers of the body spray do not realize what they are doing, or maybe they just have no sense in smell but this needs to be cut down. It's one of my biggest pet peeves. I have personally approached people about this problem but usually I get a rude response such as "don't like it than leave" or "it's my spray I can do what I want", but obviously these people have killed to many brain cells with these toxic fumes to realize that enough is enough. People using body spray doesn't bother me, it's the amount they use. One or 2 sprays will do the job, you don't need the whole bottle. I already had breakfast, I don't need to digest your smell aswel.
Based on how many teachers and students this bugs, something needs to be done. Many people now adays have different allergies and one day someone with a severe allergy to body sprays will come to Maples and people will have to stop using the sprays in school due to it. Than all the body spray addicts who go to their locker every chance they get to use this "wonderful smelling" spray will be lost. I garentee I'm not the only one with this exact pet peeve. However, it probably doesn't disturb people the same way as it does me.
To conclude my complaint, I'd like to offer some wonderful advice that could be helpful.
Dear Body Spray Abusers, why must you fill the hallways with the fumes of your body spray? I don't mid that you use body spray but one spray is good enough. Not many people want to be around you if you smell bad, I completely understand but not many people will wan to be around you if you REEK of body spray aswel. You're at school, stop trying to over impress people. Yes, it's great to smell pretty or good but you have to learn when to stop. As a suggestion, use one or maybe even 2 sprays, not the whole bottle. I can promise you it will NOT run away.
