I got diagnosed with a fragrance allergy recently. I break out in hives on my face. My doctor gave me back my allergy results and told me I had to cut all scented things out, from cleaners, to soaps, to shampoos, detergents, whole nine yards. I was crushed at first, because I liked my scented soaps and dryer sheets.

But you know how people that go blind kinda get hearing superpowers? My nose has been getting that now, because there’s less scent “noise” in the picture. Scents are sharpened now. I feel almost superhuman now, haha. Anyone here ever had something similar with a different sense, or something similar with fragrances? I’m amazed at just how many things we put fragrance in now!
