Patchouli in the workplace: Do you?

I work in a pretty large building with several hundred employees. A woman walked by me a bit ago and 15 minutes later this corner of the office still smells like hippies.

Ladies, would you wear patchouli to work in an office environment?

    No...I hate that scent.

    Strong scents of any sort (perfumes or BO) should not be allowed in the workplace! *gags*

    Okay, I don't even know what that is.

    Googled it. No.

    I do have a guy who sits beside me who wears the worst cologne every single day. You can smell it throughout the entire office. The best is when he sprays it just as I am about to eat lunch at my desk. Thanks.

    I'd rather smell patchouli than some of the chemically overpowering perfume and cologne some people wear. I'm not much of a fan of people wearing scents. Soap should be enough.

    I will start off to say that I do love me some essential oils.
    HOWEVER, I used to work with a lady who wore patchouli oil and I hated every second I was in her presence. I voiced my opinion about how stinky she was often and was rewarded by karma with a Zumba class containing TWO ladies who wear it as deoderant. Since it couldn't possibly get any worse than gagging through Zumba in a patchouli oil/gaseous fog I can say I hate that crap more than life itself. Good luck with that :(

    Most places here are scent free but there's always someone who thinks it doesn't apply to them
