“Not a single other person had complained about us so I refute the idea that it was their smell....”

Wanna bet? I’ve told people their body odor was so bad they needed to clean up. You have to use tact, but when a person walks into a skating rink where you are, and the WHOLE PLACE is immediately filled with their body odor it is time to say “Enough”.

If the French complained, it must have been REALLY bad.

The “smell”, aren’t these the same problems Disney had with the amusement park in France?
I don’t even know if the place is still there, but apparently they prevented to tell their employees to bathe.
My husband and a friend went to La Mans two years ago, and he said it (French body odor) was pretty bad when they were out side the event.

Oh well, who are we to judge them, after all what does it really matter. (/s/)

I work with a Brit who had that problem, but it is unusual among them.

Sacre bleu! The French developed parfum to masquerade such foul body odors. This happened in France ... the land of perfume.

We used to have a fellow in the office at the CS (Containership) line I worked for who was Polish. He never had a bath in his entire life I believe. He was constantly assaulted by people in the office, but to no avail. He was a very nice person, just didn’t bathe, and stunk like Hell

I was the lucky one in the office as my job took me out to the docks, and to off dock suppliers everyday. Whenever I saw that guy enter, I exited.

If this happened in France, I can only imagine they smelled like rotting corpses or something similarly unpleasant.

On my first trip to Paris in about 1963, I took the elevator up in the Eiffel Tower. It was a big elevator and my family shared it with a group of about 20 school girls about 4th grade age. They were nicely dressed in school uniforms but the smell was horrible. I doubt if they had bathed or had their hair shampooed in months. I am thankful that they were not adults.

I have some Latino friends who quite some years ago took a trip to France.
At the hotel reservation’s desk they picked up THEE ordor while asking for directions.

They were flabbergastd (these Latino ladies are impeccably groomed and outfitted - all the time).
They were startled, and started speaking in Spanish about the problem.

Later that evening, upon returning from sight-seeing, my friends heard the same (woman) hotel clerk speaking to someone - in Spanish!!!
Busted! LOL!

I worked with a French intern, in the 80’s, in Calif. One day she showed me an ad for deodorant, and asked me what it was (she was about 25 years old). I explained it to her, then she asked me why people would spend money on such a thing. Lucky for her, she lived with a Frenchman, so her “eau de body, cigarettes, & black coffee” was not a fast track to solitude.
