It’s interesting that the instructions want you to cup your hands around the nipple instead of just spraying yourself directly

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This has got to be a big part of it in two different ways: smokers wanting to cover their own stink, but also smokers having reduced sense of smell!
Nowadays I feel like people have nuked their sense of smell with fragrance generally. I trip to anyone else's house and I get headaches from the amount of automatic fragrance despensers, reed diffusers, essential oil atomisers, scented this that and the other on top of bombing themselves with strongly scented body products and sprays.
Don't forget covid, and long covid effects.
After having covid three times (and losing my sense of smell from it twice), I'm not sure if my sense of smell ever got back to normal.
Where are you if you don’t mind me asking? I feel like I’m not running into this on the US west coast
In my experience, it's fortunately not too common. I disliked potpourri (headaches...) but the essential oil diffusers are so much worse.
I feel like people have scented things for as long as I can remember, but maybe how we're doing it has changed.
I personally like it when my home smells like "nothing," even when I come back to it after being gone a while. Smelling changes in humidity, level of dust, or anything else is pretty great.
