do you not smell body odor or do you just get used to it?

Genuinely curious. I have met a few people of different walks of life that I could tell did not and I have always used it, so I’m just curious. I know there was a couple that stopped using it for around a year, and they said their body actually end up not perspiring as much as when they used antiperspirant, but I’d like to know other people’s experiences.

The worst is the sickly sweet floral perfumes like my grandma, and sometimes my mom, would wear. Being trapped in a car with them, I think gave me PTSD bc I instantly go back to that feeling of suffocating nausea even to this day.

My partner will be like ooh try this (essential oil) and I'm like ugggghhh

Thankfully nobody really seems to wear those anymore. Even super pungent colognes don't hit me the same way, and we have some guys who must bath in that shit...
