I've recently discovered a dislike for these. When I grab one to wipe away the ja-jang sauce from my mouth and I get a noseful of lavender, something just doesn't seem right.

I think I've put my finger on what exactly it is that has been disturbing my ki.

Scented tissues are meant to be smelled. A tissue must come near a nose in order to be smelled. A tissue near the nose is typically used to blow said nose. A nose that needs blowing is congested. A congested nose most likely suffers from a deteriorated sense of smell.

So what's the point of using scented tissues on stuffed noses?!

I don't like scented tissue either. Our noses and certain parts of the pudenda are very sensitive to irritants like perfumes and other substances. Scented TP just seems like a bad idea.

On the other hand, if one is going to wipe one's behind after going number 2 and then put the tissue in a wastebasket rather than flushing it, you might prefer the smell of perfumed poo over the scent of ordinary poo. I wouldn't, but chacun c'est un!
