Definitely not. It is even worse if you are working out in a pool. The perfume/cologne tends to sit on top of the chlorine fumes in the air and intensifies.

I wouldn't in a public gym, but in my home gym I go all out2

No. Absolutely not. My reason being that you don't know what scent may offend someone/cause them issues.
Hate to use myself as an example but I'm hyper-sensitive to scents/other strong smells (as an example, I can smell cigarette smoke from a considerable distance away without seeing the offending item).
Someone in the gym on an adjacent cardio machine had (to me anyway) really strong aftershave on and it was doing me in. Of course, the more this guy ran, the hotter he got, the stronger the smell was. I had to actually leave the gym in the end.
I stay away from the cardio machines now as I cannot tolerate the perfume/aftershave some people wear. Although that doesn't particularly bother me as I'd rather be outside cycling/walking/running anyway.4 -
It would be wise to not do that. Anything you spray on your body combine with sweat will be more offensive than "traditional body sweat."0

Showering regularly and Antiperspirant is sufficient.6

Only after... You know instead of a shower.11

Well, we have our grandparents generation who still go to the gym. I find it is only them who are wearing it. When you are 80+at the gym....hell you deserve to wear whatever you want! Lol I smell more guys body odor then anything or what about the obnoxious lifting dudes trying to impress people by dropping the weights so loud ( while looking to see who was watching) or the lady on the treadmill always on her cell phone, sometimes even on speaker. Lots of gym annoyances. Haha3

thats gross
i saw a lady spray herself after her double work out. thats not going to be pleasant for the people around her.0 -
I can get a migraine from someone drenched in perfume or cologne walking by someone at the grocery store. I'd say lighter is better in most cases. I don't know if they need to be totally banned at a gym but wouldn't be upset by such a policy.7
