I can't stand my coworker's perfume. What should I do?

—Stephanie Hoitt, Boston, Mass.

Bobbi: A touchy, touchy subject. Pull her aside and politely ask her to not wear her scent to work because it gives you a bad headache (or triggers your allergies). Strong fragrances can be offensive, so I like single-note scents (such as vanilla) that have a subtle smell and don’t invade anyone else’s space.

Soft scents: Lavanila Healthy Fragrance in Pure Vanilla($39; sephora.com); Clean Cotton T-Shirt Eau de Parfum ($38; ulta.com)
