This is flat out unreasonable. You are comparing the atmospheric
contamination caused by SMOKE to that caused by the wearing of _ANY_
perfume. While the wearing of excessive amounts of fragrance, espcially
synthetic fragrances, may trigger adverse reactions, the average amount of
scent worn by someone who has not just put it on actually tends not to
cause a reaction-- or you and everyone else with sensitivity would be
walking around wearing an oxygen mask whenever you went out in public.
I myself have an extreme reaction to an overdose of certain synthetic
scents, as well as a reaction to excessive amounts of smoke.

The fair analogy would be someone smoking and someone applying areosol or
spray commercial fragrances in a closed area. Both would be equally
noxious.
However, no-one is cliaming that being around people who smoke, and
therefore smell of smoke, is causing a reaction: only the application of
said smoke is causing a reaction.

I always have to laugh when I realize that people who have complained
about perfume have met me when I was wearing some-- and never noticed, or
had a reaction. ;)
