...okay well I wear Black Opium. I never realised there was such a thing as work safe perfume š
The YSL one? My roommate wears it and it smells so good!
Sorry - no perfume at the office. I only got half of what I could have out of a two day training course because I was fighting scent triggered migraines and sneezing. Iām sure your scent is lovely but for those of us with the over sensitive gene sometimes even gain laundry detergent sends us to the exdrin. OTOH, probably no one will ever get away with cyanide poisoning in the office with us around.
Just use a scented body lotion if you want scent. Not strong and wonāt overwhelm your coworkers
I wear Le Labo although itās quite strong. Jo Malone makes some light colognes
Love jo Malone peony!
I'm not a fan of perfumes on myself or other people. Whenever I notice it it just smells overwhelmingly artificial to me. And when you can't smell it then what's the point of using it?
But recognise that I may be sensitive and to each their own.
I like many of the Jo Malone scents.
I love certain perfumes but apparently there is quite the anti-perfume movement. At a church I visited in Akron, Ohio there was actually a āscent-freeā seating area!!
I tend to find that sweet/fruity/floral scents can be a bit too much for work. But things that are on the lighter side, life citrus or herbal, and applied lightly, linger in a softer way, like you just used a nice hair conditioner or body lotion.
Le labo noir
Try something very light, like an eau de toilette instead of an eau de parfum, if you really want to wear something, but go SUPER light on how much you use- thereās no nice way to tell someone they smell, whether itās perfume or BO. If your team isnāt stuck in a tiny team room, you may have more leeway.
As far as scents go, Iām loving Maison Margiela Replica in Beach Walk- itās not traditionally perfumy, and it really does smell like a day at the beach!
+1 on Jo Malone. Love orange blossom scent. Itās very light
I love Replicaās scents .
