This is old but I keep thinking about it. I had bought this Amber body oil stuff from a kiosk in the mall and I thought it would smell pretty decent.
There was this girl at my job who kept on pointing at me and yelling really loud saying that I smell bad and that I was giving her a migraine. bad and I was confused because I shower, wear clean clothes. Deodorant, all that jazz. I asked the people around me if I actually smelled that bad and they all said they couldn’t smell anything.
So I kept putting more oil on thinking maybe my deodorant wasn’t working or something,
Well when my boyfriend was giving me a ride home I asked him “Do I smell bad? What is that lady’s problem?” And he says no but you smell like patchouli.
I had no idea what that even is and I’m like “ what the hell are you talking about?” He said it was like stuff hippies use.
Tl;dr wore something labeled as “amber body oil” which apparently smelled like something that crawled out of hell and pissed off my co-worker. Got self conscious and put more on and she just got angrier.
So I threw out that oil and never used it again.
