Who was the best-smelling person to you, what do you think their secret fragrance was or what might explain it?

Avoid partners or love interests if you can, focus purely on non-pheremonal smell sense

There was a lady I worked with 20+ years ago and she occasionally would come to work and just smell incredible. To be clear we were just acquaintances and there was no attraction. I finally had to ask her because it was just such an amazing smell and it was a fragrance called “Happy.” I don’t know who made it or if it’s even still sold but good grief it was an intoxicating smell.

It seems like Happy is a Clinique fragrance, FYI! Maybe you can order a sample and try it

Hopefull someone knows more about it. Very curious.

Was it "feminine smelling" or more transcendant?

I think most people would say it was a feminine scent.

Not necessarily a person but most black people smell amazing to me. I think it’s a combination of laundry detergent, skin care products, and perfume/cologne. It’s not overdone like white/Mexican people. It’s just right.

What do you think they use?

I know shea butter skin care products are part of it, but outside of that, every time I ask they either laugh it off or accept my question as a compliment and say “awww stop, you’re too kind”. It almost feels like a form of “bless your heart” or “I ain’t seen shit”, but I never get a straight answer.

You never press it?

…that was more the intent of my last sentence.

I’m Asian from the US South. You learn real quick that pressing a black person for information isn’t always great for race relations. Where I grew up if you pressed MeMaw (our daycare teacher) for an answer, all you were getting back was extreme sarcasm or anger. I grew up knowing when not to “press it”. Go too far and MeMaw would slap the shit out of you and you knew you deserved it. With my friends, there’s just some aspects of black culture that aren’t for us, and that’s ok.
