People will not tolerate someone enters into lift with cigarette in hand. But people having more intense smell of perfumes on their dress fill the lift with pollution and never bother about that.

Neither we have standards for cosmetics or ethics and logic for the rules. A masala company will pollute the entire area with mirchi powder. Hotels have no exhaust systems. People burn anything on the roadside in the name of garbage.

Like goats, everybody is behind cigarette. All other pollutants are forgiven

I read several years ago about a city in Canada (was it Quebec?) that banned the wearing of perfumes and scented cosmetics. I think it is a good idea. I know people who have serious allergic reactions and others who have respiratory conditions whose wellbeing is threatened by being around scented products. I stopped wearing cologne and scented lotions years ago for this reason. I would feel terrible if someone had a life-threatening reaction because of me.

You are correct.

My husband became very ill several years ago and, although he has never officially been diagnosed, the doctors all agree that he has something that has compromised his immune system. As a result, he is very sensitive to odors. The doctors also warned that odors can be absorbed through the skin, and he is to avoid the following: gas fumes (can't pump gas), all tobacco smoke and fumes, perfumes and colognes and aftershaves, scented shampoos and conditioners and hairsprays, scented laundry products, all household cleaning products .... there are more, but that is just an example.

I would think that if an ill person must avoid these types of odors, it must be because they are a pollutant, and yes excessive use should be prohibited or banned.

Of course, getting the majority of people to agree would be impossible, and the various industries who promote these products would be in an uproar.

Some people are effected by the smell of perfume. These people have either an allergic reaction to it or they can have serious astma attack. Some perfumes are apparently worse than others. Then again other people don't seem to be effected by perfume at all.

So, to answer your question;
for some people perfumes are a definite air pollution. But then for a lot of other people, it's not or it's indifferent.

the genuine subject is that the gov't and media are making CO2 out to be a considerable pollutant or toxin (a "undesirable guy"), whilst it needless to say isn't. A pollutant, legitimately, is a chemical substance that's volatile to residing structures, something like sulfar dioxide or carbon monoxide or benzene... usually guy-made, in spite of the undeniable fact that there are exceptions...which contain sulfur dioxide from volcanoes and rotting flora. because it happens, CO2 is a organic subtance, expelled by using animals and vegetation, and absorbed by using photosynthetic vegetation in the time of one 0.5 of their respiration cycle. this is no longer poisonous, and have been one waiting to push a button and harm all of this chemical compount in minute, we'd be in a "international of injury," as our supply of oxygen might quickly disappear, and all existence in the international might succumb. people who rant approximately AGW (and ACC) are the two untutored in technology or have some hidden schedule. they are rightly labled Alarmits. no longer withstanding the final desire for admire of ecological standards (and a swap far off from fossil fuels and nuclear means, and the desire for rapid progression of decision potential of propulsion), those human beings understand no longer of what they communicate. There are a pair of dozen clarification why the "international Warming" hypothesis isn't supported by using technology. regrettably, virtually truthfully everyone has "under the impact of alcohol the Kool-help." purely a number of the topics with this hypothesis: a million. Warming leads CO2 strengthen. 2. the biggest "greenhouse gas" is water vapor. 3. photograph voltaic interest is the main efficient "driving force" of temperature replace. 4. The information have been cherry-picked and manipulated in an substantial thank you to offer the interestingly cataclysmic difficulty...which has no longer materialized. 5. The fashions used are complicated, contain considerable assumptions, and are incorrect. 6. whilst the dire predictions are actually not fulfilled, the alarmists hem and haw and are available up with stupid excuses. Like non secular cult-contributors, they INSIST on their factors, in the fact of contradiction. 7. The Antarctic ice-%. has grown thicker over modern-day years, aside from one small section.

If people are clean and apply perfumes at home, but to carry them around is a bit much for me. I like the message your sending here.

In our work place, perfumes and colognes can be prohibited if the scent is overpowering, offensive smelling, or if someone is allergic to the scent.

It's wrong to wear them to work or in small spaces. Most people overdo it. And I hate cigarettes, too.
