It’s interesting that the instructions want you to cup your hands around the nipple instead of just spraying yourself directly

    Smoking in public also became rare, and generally people started smelling better without the need for fragrances.

    This has got to be a big part of it in two different ways: smokers wanting to cover their own stink, but also smokers having reduced sense of smell!

      also smokers having reduced sense of smell!

      Nowadays I feel like people have nuked their sense of smell with fragrance generally. I trip to anyone else’s house and I get headaches from the amount of automatic fragrance despensers, reed diffusers, essential oil atomisers, scented this that and the other on top of bombing themselves with strongly scented body products and sprays.

        In my experience, it’s fortunately not too common. I disliked potpourri (headaches…) but the essential oil diffusers are so much worse.

        I feel like people have scented things for as long as I can remember, but maybe how we’re doing it has changed.

        I personally like it when my home smells like “nothing,” even when I come back to it after being gone a while. Smelling changes in humidity, level of dust, or anything else is pretty great.
