No, because I don't want to accidentally trigger someone's life threatening allergy to scents.

Edit: I do own a bottle of Versace Blue Jeans though, and have worn it out to places that aren't enclosed spaces where I might risk causing a problem for someone.

"Research has demonstrated that it is impossible for an allergic event to be triggered through the use of perfume by a third party in proximity to a susceptible individual. The pertinent study, conducted by the German Federal Environment Agency [Bundesumweltamt], concluded that the mere act of inhaling potential contact allergens did not, in fact, result in the development of allergic symptoms by the test subjects."

Celliacs don't get symptoms by breathing in bakery smells.

Yeaaah no, people are allergic to specific scents. Lavender is one of them, for example, and is a component in a lot of perfumed beauty products.

Not only that, but even if there are no specific allergies, people with COPD can be triggered by heavily scented products.

I didn't know that. Do you personally know someone who's allergic to scents?

Several people personally, far more professionally. One of my best friends is allergic to lilac, another has COPD that is triggered by one of the components common to perfume (she doesn't know what it is).

So when I know I'm going to work or I'm going to someplace like a classroom where there are a lot of people in a poorly ventilated space, I try not to wear fragrances.

That sucks because so many things are scented, like shampoos and washing powder. I hope people are feeling better with the new regulations for perfume products ingredients.

I don't wear fragrances often, still I make extra sure not to do it when I go to a hospital.

Hospitals, airports (if boarding a plane), classrooms, small office buildings...

Those are environments where people work and don't have the option of just moving away from a disturbing fragrance, so they're all good places to avoid wearing perfume.

Lavender is the world's most popular smell? I thought it was chocolate, honey, almonds, bacon or maybe weed.

Flower scents are the most popular by far. Bacon, wtf? Maybe in chips...
