I am now allergic to perfume but still like to think about it.

Never allergic, but the mere subject reminds me of riding the crowded #5 Milledge Avenue UGA Bus, with fraternity/sorority row in the 1980s, all the smells, all the hair, and our friend driving with this crowded, fragrant bus, wearing a button, that read, "It's ALL Greek to Me"

I had to see a shrink as he said I was phobic about perfume but then an Environmental Illness doctor explained to me how toxic it is and how it gave me migraine, dizziness and set off my asthma. Hairspray used to make me very sick at hair salons. I can only go to the ones that cut hair and don't use it.
The doctor made me read Tired or Toxic? A Blueprint for Health. I finally purchased my own copy of it.
