Jim -

Maybe you'd care to explain why you think wearing cologne or perfume is the same thing as smoking or burning incense.

We could have a reasonable discussion, then, instead of just contradicting one another.

I believe that I have a right to breathe air that doesn't have cigarette smoke in it, and that my right to do so trumps a smoker's rights, when we are dealing with the same volume of air. In other words, in an enclosed space, we all have to share the same air, so nobody has the right to alter the quality of that air unless everyone agrees they can.

Perfume or cologne may cause an odor that some people don't like, but it doesn't affect the quality of the air with respect to health issues.
