I sprayed myself with every single perfume tester at a central Manchester department store when I was 15. I then took the bus home. A man in the row behind me had an asthma attack and the driver called an ambulance. I have never worn perfume since.

@impy As a scent triggered asthmatic I refer to airport duty free gauntlets as, “Nerve Gas Ikea” -

there is an old mall here which has housed the Hudson's Bay Company for several decades, which has a ground floor walk-through area that goes to the street on the next block. that was where they put the perfume counter. until about ten years ago, when they finally changhed it, i'd hold my breath walking through there.
