Perfume problem

My hubby's bought me a huge bottle of a Victoria's Secret perfume. It's awful very heavy smell and nothing like I normally like. He loves it. How do I get out of wearing it? I've told him it's not my usual type and he seemed disappointed

Tell him it gives you a headache

One of my Pravda perfumes brings me out in a horrible itchy rash; any chance you could fake that?

Possibly. I'm really sad about it as I've been waiting for months as my old perfume ran out. He just got it so wrong and it does give me a headache. What a waste of money!

Victoria's Secret perfumes are horrible, so heavy and sweet so I'm with you on that. I'd hate someone to buy me perfume unless they knew exactly what I like, it's such a personal thing.

If it's been opened and can't be returned there's a good market on Ebay for second hand perfumes.

You'll just have to explain to him why it's not your thing.
