Been running around today, had an appointment in a building, as I was getting in the elevator about 6 guys also got in. They did not smell good, I had never done this before but I actually held my breath in hopes that I would not pass out. I can't imagine what it would be like in the summer with 130 degree weather, but then again I will probably smell like them too.

Well, if you shower and use deodorant, which I am sure YOU do , then you won't.
Next time you are in an elevator, try to catch one with the white clad guys, they usually smell delish!!!!

From my nasal experience - they usually splash half a bottle of either oud or some strong YSL style perfume.

Don't women here have a sense of smell? Or are subtle fragrances not allowed here?
