The Day My Perfume Got HR Attention

Four desks, high partitions, I sit in the far corner, mostly alone. Across the aisle? A team of older finance ladies with a dehumidifier and a mystery air spray that sounds like a jet engine every afternoon. Today, admin pulled me aside. “They say your perfume gives them chest pain.” Chest. Pain. From two meters away, through two layers of partition. I wear Jo Malone’s Bluebell. It’s basically water with vibes. Now I’ve retired all ten of my scents to the back of a drawer like cursed objects. Might pass them down to my grandchildren. Office life is wild. #beauty #fragrance #officechronicles
