Laughing long and loud...Jadwiga honey, you can share a hug with me whenever
we meet.  If you are wearing one of your personal scents, oh well for me.
I, personally, do not often ask people to refrain from those personal
choices (I only do if I really want to irritate someone or if they are
coming to my studio for prolonged periods of time).  I prefer to remove
myself, if possible.  Those around me will sometimes buffer me, with or
without my knowledge.
