nd 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 Depends on who owns the enclosed space. 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. It can for some people.

"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." It most certainly does. Makes my eyes water, and my sinuses plug up. If I'm stuck in an elevator with some woman who thinks her cheap perfume should be enjoyed by everyone in a football stadium, it takes hours for my sense of smell to come back. How many tests have been conducted on the carcinogenic effects of perfumes, not to mention allergic effects? Besides, it just plain stinks.
