Should I Tell My Boss I Hate Her Perfume?

Question
Lately she has been wearing this Raspberry perfume that I absolutely despise.
It makes me sick to my stomach. Not only is it horrible smelling to begin with, but I have a history with this perfume.
At my last job, I worked with a woman who had a stinky crotch from hell. She used to cover it up with Sun Ripened Raspberry from Bath and Body works. Her crotch was so smelly, we made the office manager talk to her about it. She denied knowing about it, was apologetic and the crotch went right on stinking.
Think about stinky crotch smell mixed with Raspberry.
I really don't know if I can take it. Should I tell her the story and ask her if she will wear the perfume less?

Kimber, talk to her. If you do nothing, it'll never get better. At least if you talk to her you have a chance of some fresh air.
Hell yeah, I could be much more of an asshole, to answer the question.

Or... you could use this opportunity to angle for an office w/ a window!
Too bad you hate that scent, it only brings back good memories for me, he he. I can always tell when someone has that sun ripened raspberry stuff on immediately and I always say something. I think it freaks most people out that I can so easily recognize it. What they don't realize is that thats probably the only cosmetic scent I can recognize.

It appears that the concensus is to blame it on allergies, headaches, etc. and not tell the stinky crotch story. Ok, working up the courage!!

jus tell her delicately that you are sensitive to certain perfumes..and it causes headaches or allergy (u cant prove allergy..but ) and ask her if she can tone it down a little.
I am very sensitive to certain smells..they cause me dizzy. When I was a kid, my mom could never use sandal or any other air freshners because they made me out of breath.
Tell you boss the same thing.
if she is a good boss she will understand..
and btw..does she put on the whole bottle? none of my bath n body works perfumes are strong or last longer than an hour or two. :sadwalk:
