    I am older but I always wear perfume when going on an interview. I can say that when I have interviewed for a new job I almost always get an offer. I think it is a matter of what you do normally. It is also common sense not to wear anything too strong but something very light will not hurt.

    Just my 2 cents.

    I always wear a light perfume, especially when I'm hairdressing. Never had a complaint but I think I'd rather not think I smell bad when working so close to people!!!

    I'd wear one to an interview but only one I would wear on a day to day basis.

    I like the idea of lightly scented lotion. Would you guys deem this acceptable?

    I don't wear perfume to an interview, but do use a lightly scented body wash.

    I think it might depend on the job. If it's for a job that would have to do with beauty (hairdresser, makeup artist, etc.) then I might. If not then no I wouldn't.

    I always wear perfume, but I work in the cosmetology industry. I would keep it light though and nothing over powering.
