Based just on the headline I can imagine scenarios where I'd agree with either side.
On the one hand some people bathe in the stuff and are a nuisance. Such people are prone to not understand basic physiology and therefore believe the wrong one of these:
1. If I can't smell it, then the smell no longer exists, therefore I need to put on more of this weak ass perfume/cologne.
2. Most of the other senses, a sensation of smell declines in the face of persistent unchanging stimulus. Therefore, even though while I can no longer smell it, I have enough faith in the basic of vapor chemistry to trust that the pleasing aroma still malingers.
On the other hand some people are oversensitive whiners who will bitch and complain and throw a royal fit if any aspect of their environment isn't perfectly to their ideal conditions. Such people are prone to confuse the following statements:
1. I don't like that perfume you are wearing.
2. Since it provide a blunt club with which I can cow the people around me I am allergic to that perfume you are wearing and therefore you must bow to my preferences.
