It's because of this I am so self-conscious about smells in general. Would run and close all the bedroom doors and closets anytime my mom started cooking. The smell lingers on clothes for days.
Also, I have noticed that a lot of south asians have really bad B.O. I can't describe it but it smells so strong, like its wafting out of them. Maybe its the high consumption of cigarettes or the high onion diet. It's made me so paranoid that I might smell like that when I get older.
