Question:
It wasnt a reaction to me, but I was re-testing my sample of Fumerie Turque today when a friend asked me "whats that smell?"
I shared my sample with him and he recoiled in horror minutes later. "This stuff is nasty, like a garbage can rotting with left over pudding and cigarette butts"
I wont go to those extremes, but Fumerie Turque is somewhat of a disaster when it comes to tobacco scents. What were you thinking, Sheldrake ??

I was wearing Rive Gauche. What would they comment when smelling Rose Poivree from The Different Company? I must have been missing from the High Art Of Scent lessons at school, but that is simply disgusting.

Answer:
Worst comment or reaction ever received would have to be knightowl's responses to a great deal of my posts, esp. the "what would blank wear posts", which I admit I overused, and won't be posting again, and other fanciful posts. He has some kind of vendetta against me.

I've never gotten a bad comment per se, but more than a few times I've been told, "maybe you shouldn't wear so much cologne."

I'm sorry that's just not right. I divorced my first wife for things like throwing out pudding before it's time.

Answer:
It happened a year ago in winter time. I finished work and decided to test Keiko Mecheri Loukhoum. I hailed a taxi. As soon as I jumped in, he taxi driver said:"What is that terrible smell? It is sick and I feel nauseated!". He then un-winded 4 windows and drove at 160 km/h and deliver me to the destination.
I was quite upset because I quite like the Keiko Mecheri Loukhoum and thought about making the purchase, but after this incident, it made me think twice...
