I'll start with the fact that I kind of like the smell of gasoline, and also bleach for some reason.

Cologne or perfume on a human. Stop. It's not nice, I don't want to smell you.

But we all have a scent, would you prefer natural smell to perfume?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Not OP, but often, yes.

Also not OP, but without a doubt yes every time. I've don't think I've ever noticed the natural smell of a human being other than myself as a negative smell. OTOH, someone who is fresh out of the shower and used something like a strongly scented shampoo should quarantine themselves for at least a bit before doing something like getting on a bus.

If it's something you have to be intimately close to smell it's nice, if you sit down at the table next to me and I can smell it that's rough
