The Scent of a Spaniard
Contrary to the Paris metro, the Madrid metro doesn´t reek of body odor. In fact, the majority of Spaniards, in my exprerience, smell really fantastic. They wear scented deodorants and/or cologne or perfume, and as you´re walking down the street you can actually smell a Spaniard before you can see them. I know that sounds unpleasant, but it really isn´t. They don´t wear horrible cheap perfume or cologne...the stuff that makes you gag and want to run away. They wear quality stuff, and even though you can smell them yards away, they smell so good that I want to be enveloped by their scent and I breathe in deeply through my nose to drink it in.
