    Do Danish People Smell More Than Normal?

    This week, Brooke shares a disturbing story of how the use of Fabreeze air-freshener sparked conflict with her Danish husband. Like any couple would want, we brought their issues to this podcast for public debate and ridicule. At the core of the issue is whether scented products are appropriate or should be avoided at all costs. We have noticed, with no scientific evidence, that Danes seem to be more sensitive to smells and scented products than people in our homelands. Is there data to back this up, or are they just more vocal about their displeasure and aversion to anything but a neutral scented product? Derek found several studies that shed a little bit of light on the subject as well as action taken by the government in the last decade that could be influencing how Danes respond and react to perfumes and other scented products. Conrad shares some of his experiences with odors and scents in Denmark, specifically on Danish trains and in nightclubs. How does smoking play a role in all of this? We get to the bottom of it all and have plenty of laughs along the way. Get ready to learn more about how Danish people smell and if it's more intense than other nationalities.
