So yesterday while at the gym I noticed something smelled like onions? IT WAS ME :grumble: WTH? The only difference was in the morning I sprayed on some JLo perfume, why? i dunno. I never put perfume on in the morning.

Has this happened to another one else? YES I left as soon as I noticed, I didnt want to be one of those that stink up the gym.

    Taking a shower will remove the odor.

    Note to self: JLO stinks

    :tongue:

    your body chemistry may have just reacted with the perfume in a very unfortunate way...

    hahaha poor you! I'm guessing maybe it was something you ate? Perhaps the day before? Rather than your perfume.

    Yes, when I chop onions...but after I wash my hands, it goes away.

    And apparently, now I know to avoid JLO's perfume.
  • I smell TERRIBLE after I workout. I sweat a lot and I am straight up puke-worthy smelling. It happens. Take a shower :)

    Maybe instead of grabbing your deodorant, you accidentally picked up half a cut onion and smeared that on your underarms.

    I think it was the perfume. The odor was very strong on my forearms right where i sprayed it.

    Your body odour mixed with the perfume probably had a bad chemical reaction resulting in the smell. I wouldn't wear perfume to the gym again if I were you!:flowerforyou:
