Imagine being the unfortunate person opening the plane when it lands at the other end. The passengers noses will have been dulled from exposure by then, but a fresh nose might very well feel assaulted.

As to dating Shalimar, is that not a perfume of the 1920s ?

Yes, true. But then I think about the plane air circulation system which I'm assuming will remove all of these smells I encountered, no? And, yes, Shalimar is from the 1920s, but I know a few women, including a friend of my mother's who wears it now and again. It most likely wasn't the perfume she was wearing, but sure had a similar profile.
