My wife has been trying to discourage me for years from making strong scents. No luck (on her part) yet.

Interesting concept, John. My G/F at the time said I'd "changed", but never could tell me exactly HOW I'd changed. I DO know that it is difficult for me to now grasp new concepts-Trying to learn Excel, for example, just buffaloed me, & was one of the things that led to my firing. I couldn't "Think straight" at least at first, after the stroke. One thing that HAS stayed is that I cry VERY easily anymore-I can see something on, say, the JFK assassination, or hear a song from "Back in the day", & it'll turn on the waterworks. Doesn't necessarily have to upset me, some things just will "set it off". The "Gag" reflex is hair-trigger, too-I can merely SWALLOW something "the wrong way", & I'll choke myself. Most of the "bad" stuff has diminished w/time-but will come up & bite me every once in awhile just to show Who's Boss, I guess. The sensitivity to odors must have been some weird trigger set off by the stroke. I've talked to my Dr. & to my wife, & the best they can do is just say, "Yeah, strokes are "Funny"...They'll do weird stuff like that to ya..."

Yeah, I'm afraid that's why my younger son liked it.
