"...then there are those who smell like they fell into a vat of musk 'perfume'..."
Oh, GAG, Yes. Perfume does NOT make up for lack of bathing/showering! And if someone can smell your perfume when they're not "hugging"-close, YOU USED TOO DAMN MUCH! Your "right" to wear perfume ends when you make the people sitting next to you start sneezing. (Sorta like your "right" to play your car radio ends when I can hear it in MY car even with my windows rolled up.)
Really, you don't want to have ANY noticeable smell (even a supposedly "pleasant" one) at a convention. Many people (including some of the actors you want to impress) have allergies to scents, too, and THEY have as much right to enjoy themselves as you do.
