      It's more needed because as soon as they get in middle school they use axe like it's a shower in a can, axe basically is perfume but instead of smelling like flowers it smells like TV static. Also, I can only imagine that as soon as you strike a match in one of those locker rooms it blows up like if you were to do it in a gas leak.

    Oh, I do believe there's something to be said about pheromones. The first girl I ever dated was hygienic (of course), but preferred to use the scent-free deodorant. Didn't use perfumes either unless it was some fancy occasion. We'd get back from the gym though and I swear to Christ, she'd smell like perfume. I don't know how or why, but she just naturally smelled as sweet as a rose.
    Of course, she wasn't as sweet as a rose. She slept around the whole office and used me to pay her bills. She's in politics now, go figure.

    The real joke is that even actual hygiene products (soaps, shampoos, mouthwash and some OTC meds like lip balm and moisturizers) have their signature smells that we've been "sold" on as well. Making the average initiate a walking grocery store. Fortunately, I lost my sense of smell YEARS ago and the whole thing is kinda lost on me.

      I sympathize that both of you have had reactions to various products. Have you ever been tested to determine exactly what it is. All the products you mentioned have a myriad of chemical compounds (regardless of synthetic or “natural” versions…which has it’s own loose guidelines). Fragrance, whether synthetic or natural, is no more than 1% of any of those products (much, much lower in body care products…sunscreen would be like 0.1%). Also, bear in mind that natural ingredients can contain way my allergens than synthetics, because their composition can’t be controlled-for like synthetics. Also, the amount someone uses is a key factor…even too much water can be toxic. And keep in mind just because something is natural doesn’t mean it’s inherently safe…snake venom is natural.
      I’m saying all this for your awareness, in hopes it helps you continue to select products that work for you. It’s a complicated thing and certainly more information is better for all of us making decisions for ourselves. Good luck and all the best!!

      Very well said. I think most mainstream scented laundry detergents/dryer sheets smell putrid, plus they contain several carcinogenic ingredients which they're not required to list. Plus, they become more toxic when heated in the dryer, and they outgas toxic fumes to the whole neighborhood. Ugh. Scented/toxic dyed toilet paper was faded out, and the same thing needs to happen with highly scented laundry products. There are also safe, natural ways to soften laundry.

    A friend gave me an expensive French "Eau de Toilette" (water of toilet) called L'Eau d'Issey, designed to imbue the essence of water. And I gotta say... they really nailed it! It smells almost exactly like my toilet. Specifically, when you're moments away from puking, head hanging over the toilet, mouth watering like crazy, maybe even dry heaving, there's a distinct smell... and this eau de toilette delivers that smell very accurately.
    Dunno why anyone would _want_ to smell like that, but ... mission accomplished.

      If your gift smelled exactly like your toilet, you should have given it back since your friend apparently intended to insult you with this gift. Also, it sounds as if your toilet needs a good cleaning.
      Lastly, did you know that the original meaning of "toilette" wasn't connected to the toilet bowl. Toilette simply meant good grooming or neat appearance.

    • @ToyKeeper
      @ToyKeeper Рік тому +2

      @@300books No, it wasn't gifted as an insult. No, the toilet wasn't dirty... quite the opposite. And yes, I'm aware that "eau de toilette" doesn't actually mean toilet water, and there's a whole etymological and cultural history there. The whole mechanic of the joke was to conflate the wildly different meanings of two similarly-spelled phrases, while also using the superficial similarity to make a point by implying a deeper (albeit coincidental) similarity underneath.
      It's an extremely common form of wordplay. Like, "Why did the scarecrow win an award? He was outstanding in his field!" "Necromancers don't deserve their bad reputation... they just want to raise a family." "Never put more than 239 beans in a soup... because one more makes it too farty." Etc.
      Pointing out the difference between English "toilet" and French "toilette" is like pointing out that 240 doesn't actually mean "too farty", or that raising kids is different than raising the dead.
