Calling all diabetics!

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Apparently, diabetes changes the blood sugar so much that perfumes can smell very different on the skin if you are a diabetic. I mentioned this in another thread on body chemistry, but I was wondering if there are any diabetics out there who could give their input? I have a number of diabetic family members, and my own blood sugar level is quite high. What I've noticed mostly is that perfumes tend to smell very sweet on me. I love florals, but it's hard to find one that doesn't go overly sweet and cloying after an hour or so. Paris YSL is great for not going sweet - at least, it was, but now it seems to have been reformulated and is, if anything, rather insipid and a little sour on my skin.
Nahema stays true on me, also Parfum Sacre and N'Aimez Que Moi. I also like Caron's Rose, but it doesn't hang around on me long enough to turn cloying!
Any thoughts, diabetics (or their friends, family members, etc.)?

You probably will get more responses if you post at the female or male discussion boards.
