I’m very sensitive to “laundry odors” (aka “perfume”). Spouse, not so much. Last laundry day, she used some kind of “booster” for a stain which was “perfumed”. I ended up with several shirts that made me sneeze. Fortunately, it washed out.
Interesting!!! I’ve mentioned more than once I think it’s odd Earl changes clothes, yet Opal is in the same shirt every single day!! Will that change? Hmmm
My child likes scented anti-perspirants, scented shampoos and conditioners, and then adds expensive perfumes, which she used to marinate in. I asked her why she bothered with expensive perfumes when she had at any given time 5 different scents going on, including lotions, and she didn’t understand the question. Now in a medical field, she has let up some. I buy as much unscented stuff as I can.
Interesting reading on the origin or ‘polka dots’. There were taboo until about 1840 because they looked like dreaded skin diseases of the day, small pox, etc. But, when the polka craze began, they were accepted costume. Thus, they were called polka dots for the dance in which they were worn.

Sniffing different parts of her body could be romantic. He needs to figure out which part is the problem.

In High School I sat behind a girl who used so much perfume it made my eyes water!

I’m sure he would be better if she wore waltz dots.

Smell of cigarettes makes me gag. We’re lucky so few goofs still smoke.

“What is the common denominator here with Earl’s sneezing? OPAL. That’s it Earl, you are allergic to Opal.”

I can’t handle very many “perfumed” things especially fabric softners.

Time to dust and delouse the ol’ ‘stash Earl. I imagine a little shampoo wouldn’t go to waste either. Then, the kiss test.
