Perfume? No, not really. To be honest, I don’t even really like to use deodorant – I just prefer to shower regularly so that I don’t have B.O. I’ll sometimes wear deodorant or cologne if I’m going on a date or a night out. But in general, I just prefer my natural smell.

Not really, I only wear perfumes on special occasions. I am allergic to perfumes scents especially the strong ones as they make me feel nauseated. Luckily, I don’t have body odour so I always go natural.
Your answer is very good, just a few small corrections:
“I am allergic to perfume scents, especially the strong ones, as they make me feel nauseated.”
Great job! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
Question: Do you like to wear perfume?
Perfume? No, not really. To be honest, I don’t like spending extra money on it—I’d rather just shower regularly instead.
That said, I do enjoy buying perfume as a gift for my mother since she loves anything with a floral scent.
But for myself, I generally prefer my natural smelling.
Your answer is great! I only noticed a small mistake:
“I generally prefer **to smell** natural.”
Keep up the good work!
