    how to ask someone not to use so much cologne?

    guys, ya gotta help

    my gf and I are about to start a 10 day road trip with another couple.

    The dude uses waaayyyy too much cologne/body spray. It's stinking up my apartment and giving me a headache

    I dont' wanna be an ass, but how do I ask him to not use as much?

    thanks in advance
    If it's got tits or tires, it's gonna cost ya!

          Just simply say his shit messes with your allergies.

          But real men just straight up say "hey, quit wearing so much cologne" and he should be able to accept without any hurt feels.

                Say please and be kinda nice about it? Either man up and casually let him know it bothers you without being a dillhole about it or live with it.

                  Beat his ass and establish dominance for the road trip. But seriously, tell him what you told us. Say "Hey man, not trying to be a dick, but your cologne is really strong and it gives me a headache." If he gets his panties in a wad I wouldn't wanna be on a ten day road trip with him anyways.

                    Had to do this to the parts gopher at the last shop i worked at. 9000 sq ft shop and i could tell if he was there the moment i opened the front door. Shit made my head hurt.

                    I took the polite, honest route and told him i did not want to offend him, but his particular cologne/quantity made my head hurt and could he 1) not wear it or 2) wear much less of it.

                    No hurt feelings and it worked.

                      you: Hey can you please not use so much body sprays, the smell is going to overwhelm us in the small confined space of the car and it burns my eyes sometimes.

                          ^^^ Don't beat around the bush, look him in the eye, explain why, smile, shake his hand (or bro hug, if you's be tight yo) and end with a joke.
