Or any perfume, right? Is perfumed pubes a thing? I feel so out of the loop.

SgtJuneAckland · 06/02/2024 08:15

That perfume is so orangey 😂 why do you want your pubes to smell like Kia ora?!

This was my thought.

Surely it can’t be a problem with any specific perfume. It’s just generally a bad idea to perfume your pubes.

And pointless.

😂 oh dear

My thoughts at this difficult time.

I am reminded of the time we put a reed diffuser in the downstairs loo and the reed diffuser came into contact with the spare loo roll and the spare loo roll absorbed all the perfume oil from the diffuser and I didn't notice and wiped myself with it...

Thank god I saw this just in time. I had already covered my toes in toothpaste and fake tanned my armpits. My next job was spraying my pubes with orange scented perfume. 😂

afkonholidaynearleek · 06/02/2024 08:25

Keep all unnatural things away from your pubes. It's a funny old area, highly sensitive (in good ways 😏 and bad!)

I’ve been looking for an orange perfume for ages and have ordered a travel size as a result of this thread. All publicity is good publicity, it seems.

Toddlerteaplease · 06/02/2024 08:27

Since when did people start spraying perfume on their pubes?

Mothership4two · 06/02/2024 08:34

Just why? Actually don't answer that - I really don't want to know

PRAYERS! 🙏

DonnaBanana · 06/02/2024 08:43

I imagine it’s because orange will clash with the slightly stale pee smell rather than cover it up as hoped. You live and learn!

Ouch, hope wasn't too painful.

Your post reminded me of someone at prenatal baby group. MW had been talking about ways to relax and mentioned putting a few drops of lavender essential oil in a bath. The following week one of the group told us that her partner wasn't sleeping well so she ran him a bath and put some LEO in. Well oil floats on top of water and when he sat down a certain part of his anatomy touched the water first and didn't react well with the oil. His bits were burning apparently and he had to go to A&E! She said he was in agony. By then they both could see the funny side and we all roared with laughter at his expense.

A bit like the time, in desperation, I dabbed clove oil on some genital herpes blisters, hoping it would have the same numbing effect it does on toothache.
I can confidently confirm it does not.

I can laugh about it now, but all I could do at the time was grip onto the walls and pant through the pain while my under carriage set itself on fire. I then tried scooping water out of the tap and flinging it at my muff in an attempt to douse the raging inferno. It was not one of my finer, nor more intelligent moments.

Isthisblocked · 06/02/2024 08:55

Ha ha…..I feel your pain….. reminds me of using a loo in Malaysia and then finding no loo roll….scrabble in my bag yielded a couple of mosquito repellent wipes…..yes, well, and it lasted 24 hrs….

I was very scared about where the reed diffuser was going to be put 😱

That would have been worse. Although only marginally.
