How can you tell if you are wearing too much perfume?

My sinuses are almost always having problems, and i can't usually smell very well. Is there a way i can prevent myself from putting on too much perfume? I don't want to smell like an old lady.

    It's always better to be wearing too little perfume than too much.... Try spaying the air (once or twice) and then walk through it. It will dispense it evenly, without it being too strong

    Just ask a family member or roomate after putting on diff amounts to find the right amount.. My family can smell perfume a MILE away though, it's so annoying! They complain about the smell of hand lotion, it's so ridiculous.

    It really depends on what you wear. Perfume is a raw, very pungent liquid, and today, most people only get a fraction of a perfum in an "eau de toilette" which is a diluted perfume.

    If you have an eau de toilette, one spray is good enough to cast a scent. And remember, people who aren't used to smelling your scent will get it stronger.
